Long read, but very much worth it.

That's a very well-written, sad story. It is a real talent to be able to take personal tragedy and make the readers feel that anguish. As someone who struggles with chronic depression myself, I found it a very tough read, but a reminder of how important mental health is to not only me but especially my family.

Mo, you should really pull that piece down off of Tumblr. It's very marketable: your public persona, the scholar-athlete capable of amazing feats, the family tragedy, the loss of innocence and the rebirth of faith through perseverance. This is the stuff of bestsellers, speaking tours and guest-spots on Oprah. Oh yeah, and lots of people will be educated and inspired by your story.
There's no doubt that you have some contacts in the LSU public relations department. You should see if they know anybody who would be interested in publishing your story and launching a PR campaign once you graduate. You should start a blog immediately.

Wow. My 12 year old daughter met Mo during the LSU Soccer camp. My daughter plays keeper for her team and absolutely idolizes Mo. I think I'll have to keep this story and let her read it in a few of years. I don't know that I can let her read it right now.

What an amazing person. So proud that she's one of us.

Is there somewhere else that I may read it? My work filter has blocked it, for some reason. I'd like to read what everyone seems to be moved by.
Thanks.
Thanks.

Just last night, I watched some of her Meaux vs. clips and became a big fan.
I have heard her name before I think, wasn't she the one who was trying to make a spot on FB Team? Not sure if that was a serious or not, but seems like that is where I first heard of her.
All I can say now, is she's now one of my favorite Tigers. It's truly sad to hear of her story, but I am thankful she shared it.

We all have tragedy and loss in our lives at some point. Everyone has a sob story. It is best for people keep theirs to themselves and their loved ones instead of publishing it on the internet. She will figure this out when she grows up some more.
True sometimes, but IMHO, if her story reaches a youth who can relate and it helps them, worth it

so you sayin you wouldnt? why not?
In general I would not because biologically speaking, she's young enough to be my daughter.
And even if I would, this is hardly the thread to express sentiments generated in ones pants.
