Very sad indeed...

Very sad indeed...

Never mind about the family looking for facts how about letting us in on what the family knows ? They seem to imply that they know different, as to what happened, but they're all the way back in Virgina. Surely it will all come out at the inquest ?

Please censor your comments (American teacher falls from condo rooftop) as this woman was a friend of mine. Many people will be viewing this site and do not want to see comments of disrespect. Too many times, we forget to put ourselves in other people's shoes, disregarding completely that we are talking about other human beings whom we share similar emotions and circumstances as well as life's joys and disappointments. Let us not forget that despite all of our unique qualities, we are all human and much the same in our faults, mistakes and regrets. Please do not defame my friend.
^Sorry, but which comments are you refering to when you use the word "Censor"?

Apologies to you both on behalf of myself and most of the posters here who are not insensitive or stupid enough to causing further upset to an innocent stranger for the sake of a silly and trivial assumption.
This is not the first time the forum has been utilized by a genuine outsider connected to a news story, I don't know why some would find it hard to believe.
I don't know how to make things easier for you, but I hope you get closure on this.
as a friend of Michelle and her family, I thank the person who asked for people to censor themselves. Michelle was a beautiful person with the most amazing smile you have ever seen. I can't imagine how hard it is to lose a child, but it has to be harder to lose one in a foreign country where you can't easily access the information they are desperate for. Does it really matter if it was suicide or an accident? What really matters is how tragic this was, and how badly her family is hurting. Just please be respectful, as it is already known that her mother is reading these posts.
Such a waste, nothing is that bad one has to off themselves.![]()

Sorry but I think we're being taken for idiots.
Could have been murder ?Originally Posted by jrgaskin
Why should her mother read these posts ?Originally Posted by jrgaskin
This is what I have found out.
First I would like to say that the community of TD is very sorry for the death of your daughter.
My friends have basically said that she wasn't her normal self the last couple of weeks.
Most of my friends are in shock and still wonder why.
My answers may be rather vague, but this is what I have learned.
Once again, sorry.
I wish that I could say more...
Well some lad posted over in TV, said she made heavy use of Craig's List for intimate encounters even posted her mobile #. Prob deleted now, but never the less - pointed towards checking her mobile for starters in resolving this mystery.
However sounds like she was lonely and had issues.
She was not murdered. Her mother already said that the article and the facts of what happened are not one in the same. No, I won't elaborate out of respect for Michelle and her family. If that's why you think you are being taken for an idiot, I'm sorry. There are just things and facts that are so personal that posting them in a public forum is disrespectful to her family and Michelle's memory.
I know I'd feel pretty helpless if my child died, let alone died in a foreign country. I'm sure that's why Mama Joni is in here reading the posts. So give her all the info that you can, but please, remember that Joni just lost her beautiful daughter.
You said it was not murder and that it was suicide, so what information do you want?

The mother knows all the facts but she's not based in Thailand. What a load of shit. Tell the mother, if she's reading, to give us the facts. I doubt they'll be forth coming.Originally Posted by jrgaskin

I am sorry for your loss.
Incorrect newspaper articles, and conflicting stories in different news sources is unfortunately very common.
Sometimes due to sloppy research on part of the journalist(s), sometimes due to police officials who speculate or blabber on without knowing what they are talking about, sometimes due to translation errors/misunderstandings.
Hope everything gets as well cleared up as possible. My condolences.

maybe you should invest in a flame retardant suit to wear in that special place in hell that you will be going!

here we go again
As a matter of some privacy for Michelle herself and her friends and family. So many people loved her. She was one of those types that everybody likes. She loved to help people but wasn't good at getting it for herself. This is the way depression works. She didn't want to bother anyone with her problems. Of course she had loyal friends who would not hesitate to come to her aid. We would have flown over immediately to bring her back home to get her help. We have known her for years and now what she needed. I guess she just felt alone and isolated there. I am sure her friends there wanted to help her but they had not had years of experience with her. Being Bipolar myself, I know exactly where she was coming from. Unfortunately there are so many ignorant people out in the world today it is hard to find someone to talk to. I am very happy for Michelle, for now the heavy burden has finally been lifted and she can be truly happy. She would also want all of her loved one to know that she is happy and not to worry about her. This was no ones fault. It just happened.![]()

peter, why do you tell people that you are hairy? is this a symptom of your bipolarity?
Only ignorant rednecks who have read my license plate to read that way. It stands for Harry Potter dumb ass! In your defense you probably don't read much and spend more time worrying about the fact that certain parts of your anatomy might be lacking a little bit. For I am also sorry for the pain that must cause you.![]()
Ok, and I'll type slow so you can keep up.Originally Posted by HARYPTR
It is a load of shit to refer to a recent suicide and say that one is happy for her now, and she is now happy in a much better place. It sounds as if you admire her for taking her life.
Suicide equates to failure and cowardice.
To admire that option shows a lack of a grasp of basic reality.
