Talk to your parents. Tell them what you suspect, and tell them what you're feeling. Don't keep any of this inside. Talk to your school counsellor; s/he may be able to help you deal with this terrible tragedy. Consider contacting Child Help at 1-800-4-A-CHILD (1-800-422-4453) in order to talk to someone about all this. They are staffed 24/7 with professionally trained counsellors who will listen to you. You can visit their website by copying & pasting the following URL into your browser: http://www.childhelp.org/get_help

Thank you for sharing with my visitors and me.
