Rhonda Sellers Elkins
I'm a 53 year old registered nurse and have been for 20 years. I have a husband and have been married 32 years. We have 2 daughters, Stephanie who is 27 and married and living in another town. My youngest Kaitlyn, was 23 when she took her own life at the beginning of her 3rd year of medical school 4-11-13 . My stories are about my grief and trying to live with this horrible devastation because she was the light of my life and we were close. She never showed signs of depression, never told anyone, never sought help. We never knew she was depressed until her suicide note. I have not worked since she died. I just write a lot.
