Elizabeth Way

Hi my name is Elizabeth, and the reason why this project means a lot to me. Is because I have lost so many friends and family to suicide, when I was 12 I lost my father to stage 4 lung cancer. When I was 15 I got into a relationship with a gentleman and I thought it was love so I stayed with him for 3 years. In those years he abused me in every way he could think of. It turned into a domestic abuse relationship, and I thought my only way out was to commit suicide. So I tried 4 different ways to die, and they all failed. I’ve come to realize that the reason they all failed was because I had a further purpose in the world we live in today and I’m grateful for that. Because in that time of my life I didn’t think I would make it out.
