I don't know why and I got there and I could just see everyone my eyes were just scanning everyone sitting on the front porch because I was like who is who's there and who's not my grandma wasn't there but neither was my brother and I could just see them they're all looking at me And it felt like it took me forever to get out of the car. And something said, just get out and go.

And I stood on like the front of the yard and I was like, who is it? And they just all were looking at me like, who's going to tell her? And I was like, just screaming, who is it? And finally, my cousin Shane It was really close with my brother. He said, Carson. That was it. I think I went to leave and I think someone was like, no, no, don't go. And then eventually I go inside.

And I remember my younger brother hugging me and I couldn't hug him back. I was just like, don't touch me. Do not touch me. And he was hugging me and I just was like dead in his arms and I felt so bad. But I was like, I can't hug you. Like, I just didn't want, I didn't want anyone to touch me. And that's when I found out he had killed himself. And it was just, like, awful.
