I was informed today that my cousin (older than me by 10 years) passed away over the weekend. They think it could be suicide, but they are not ruling out foul play. Her boyfriend, who she met just a few months ago, had an outstanding warrant for something, not sure what yet, and was arrested.
She had a ton of issues with bi-polar disorder and other personality issues. She had serious problems with her strict father, who she rebelled against. Only recently she started to speak to him after years of estrangement.
Personally, I didn't really have much of a relationship with her. As part of the family, she sort of estranged herself from everyone else. My parents had visited her as she was trying to retie the bonds, although due to my schedule I was never able to join them.
She's actually a very active member of the Internet community, including a very active forum (no, not this one, but I don't want to mention which one it is at this point). She even sparked a few little memes in the late 90s, some of which you might even be familiar with. One thing I found as I searched her screenname was shortly after she met this new boyfriend, all of her Internet activity nearly ceased. The aforementioned forum seems to wonder where she went. I am contemplating informing them, although I really feel too much beside myself to do that right now. Maybe a little later. I know when we lost Plaidman, we all appreciated his friends and family informing us of the news.
