When 21-year-old Sam Ehly's obituary went live after they died by suicide this past June 26, 2015, in Atlanta, Georgia, their family grieved the loss of a "son" and a "brother". But Sam's very close friend Rabbit has since come forward to ensure that Sam's wish to be remembered as a non-binary person is respected and not erased or invalidated like so many others who have died over the years.

We need to remember that suicide is a problem in the Transgender Community for Non-Binaries as well as Binaries. All Trans Lives Matter. Someone else posted that suicide is a permanent solution to a temporary problem. As long as you are alive, there's hope.
Just a reminder that if you are thinking of self-harming, or know someone who is, "We Love You" and please get help. Helpline numbers are posted on this site.
May they have found rest.
