This is very sad, sad indeed. It reminds me of another unfortunate case in London a few years ago where a young, beautiful woman of Caribbean descent (Joyce Carol Vincent),was found dead in her apartment after three years. The TV was still on and there was a pile of Christmas presents , presents she started not did not complete wrapping. It was said that she looked like Whitney Houston and had met Stevie Wonder, Nelson Mandela and others.

When things like these happen, you are forced to wonder how they could have gone undiscovered for so long. No one, no matter if they are homeless or have no family should die without being missed. This is almost the equivalent of not having existed at all.

Here is a link to an article on CJV, you can also check out the documentary which will be out soon. There are clips on youtube.

Really? Home early? In Japan? I'm happy for those who get the few hours off if it is real.

I really think that many people here walk around with problems they cant handle. It's almost a norm so I am not sure if there facilities in place for people to simply sit down and talk with a professional; even they do exist, people are not encouraged to express there true feelings. For someone who is like an emotional sponge like myself, it's difficult to see sadness and not be overwhelmed. Mental issues are as serious as physical. I am simply sorry for this child. I hope that one day people will start going against their "honor" so that the number of suicides can go down.
