Emily Casemore

Created by sarah 15 years ago
Emily was a truly loved and cared for daughter, sister, auntie, cousin, niece and friend. Emily did not have a normal leading life like most of us, her life became complicated in her mind and she always had something in the back of her mind that brought alot of sadness and anger to her life. Emily was taken away from her parents and put into a few care homes due to her state of health mainly. Her last place was in Henley, basingstoke in which she made many friends. We all saw Emily every weekend and as always, she was bright, bubbly and sometimes annoying (like any lil sis can be) but we all enjoyed the time spent with her. Even though she always seemed bubbly and happy, there was always something that you could see that just was not right. Her last weekend before she passed away, she was playing with her 2 nephews(my 2 sons, jack and josh) and rolled me some cigarettes (this was something she always did along with my cups of tea). She seemed fine apart from the bandaged arm she had which i came to believe was self-harming, this was something Emily did alot to express her feelings and show people how sad she felt or that something was wrong. Friday 14th November was the last time i saw her. I left my dads in which she stayed and did not think anything of Emilys last few days. A couple of hours after being asleep on Monday 17th November i had a knock on my door, only to find a police officer there asking to come in. She entered my house and told me the tragic news.......Emily had committed suicide! With that, i held my face and broke down into tears. This could not be happening????.......... She was my lil sister and had obviously come to a real low in her life and decided to end it. This sweet girl was loved by so many people but i dont think Emily realised how much, she felt empty. I am devastated at this as i am very lucky to have 4 beautiful sweet sisters in which we are all very close. Even though Emily is no longer with us in body, I know she is in spirit. I just wish whatever her problems were, she spoke to someone about it and then maybe she would be here with us today. I think i know alot of Emilys troubles but is not something to write about, just wish she had turned to one of her sisters. I am just so glad that my last words to her were "love u" and not anything negative! This is such a tragic event and i vow any teenager who has problems or sadness and anger inside them to please talk to someone as i dont believe anyone realises how much they are loved and cared for. Goodnight and sweet dreams Emily. I love you. xxxxxxx
