I didn’t know her personally, but the loss of this incredible human being has been sitting heavy in my chest. A devoted soul who spent her days nurturing foxes, giving them safety, dignity, and love, took her own life after being harassed and torn down by the very community she gave everything to.
To try and do something good, something gentle and healing in this world… while being quietly destroyed by gossip & cruelty, people you once trusted, it’s a heartbreak I know too well. Especially as someone who is also autistic, that kind of emotional ambush cuts even deeper.
She didn’t deserve that. No one does.
Her work mattered. She mattered.
And I hope we all sit with the weight of what our words, our silence, our whispers, our judgments can do.
May we honor her by being softer with one another. By protecting the rare ones who care more than they should.
By choosing kindness when it would be easier to stay quiet.
Rest easy, wild heart. The foxes remember. And some of us do, too.
