This name is also very special and significant to me for reasons I don't wish to disclose.  To see this name belonging to another child who has committed suicide is just gutwrenching, in as much as the act itself is heartbreaking!   Why can't we save these children, even from themselves?  What is going on inside their heads to take such drastic action?   :(   :(   :(   :(
