Moms Funeral Expenses
Donation protected
My name is Amber Caldwell. Today, on June 6th...my mom decided to take her own life. She had been battling depression/Bipolar since the age of 13. Lately her Bipolar/Depression had been getting the best of her. She began to not eat... not sleep... she became miserable... pacing back and fourth...etc the list goes on. She had been taking TMS treatments and medications to help her but they were failing her. I took her to the hospital to admit her and they refused to because she was not suicidal and did not say or speak on wanting to end her life nor had she ever mentioned it to anyone. I then spoke to her psychiatrist and begged him to ok her to be admitted-that was another part of the problem when I took her to the hospital...they wanted her psychiatrist to make the call. When I talked to him he said that she didn’t need to go to hospital and was just going to put her on new medicine and I told him I didn’t believe that would be effective. He was adamant about continuing her TMS treatments and just changing her meds. She got to the point today... where she couldn’t take it anymore. Between 10-11 am she chose to take her life. She hung herself in the basement. She had taken all that she could take. Since this was unexpected and random... our family does not have any money to pay funeral expenses or family expenses. Anything would be greatly appreciated.
