In Memory Of An Endometriosis Patient
Over the last few months, I have been alarmed to discover that several people have reached my blog by using search strings such as “endometriosis and suicide”.
I have written about this topic previously:
Endometriosis and Suicide: Awareness
National Suicide Prevention Lifeline
I have had several conversations with Endochick about this subject recently. Her blog has also gotten several site visitors who used similar or identical search strings before reaching her blog. We have both been quite alarmed about this. In the case of my blog, I notice such search strings several times a week.
A few days ago, Steph brought a tragic news article to my attention.
I urge you to read this important article, from the Kokomo Perspective.
It is called, “So no one else will suffer”.
In the words of Kristi An Rose’s mother (from the article mentioned above):
“I wanted to help somebody else,” Sherill said. “So no one else has to live that way. I just want everybody to know how much pain she went through, how much she suffered, so this doesn’t happen to anybody else.”
By sharing this article as widely as possible, my hope is that we can honor the memory of Kristi An Rose and prevent this from happening to to anyone else. I encourage you to share her story to increase awareness of the devastation that endometriosis can cause.

This story bought tears to my eyes….what a remarkable and brave young lady Kristi was, such a waste of life and I hope people realise how serious endo is.
Thinking of everyone out there who is suffering.

Julie,
It is a very tragic story. Hopefully by sharing this story other such tragedies can be avoided. I am thinking of everyone out there who is suffering too.

How tragic. This deeply saddens me, Jeanne. Life is meant to be lived to the fullest, and when we can’t because no one will hear our cries of pain and suffering and help us find healing, tragic things can happen.

Endochick,
There really are no words to describe how tragic this story is. That poor mother worked so diligently to help her daughter. I cannot imagine her losing first her husband and then her daughter a few days later. It is so, so sad.
