      Always know, suicide doesn't end pain at all. It multiples it by 1000 and hands it to those you love to endure until they day. I am a suicide widow. My husband of 23 yrs shattered me and my life and left me with with 5 grieving children. I found his body. I'll never be the same person, and my world died that morning too. That's not what you ever want to do to those you love, but often people just don't realize that it gives others far more pain to endure than one is trying to escape.

I have no fear of death and I have lived an awesome and adventurous life. But how can I not fear leaving my wife and young children? It is those we leave behind who have to live with dying.

      That's so true. I had always thought that way. In fact the person who dies do not know anything at all after death. I know it is not even a sensible statement, it is funny. It is like a sleep from where you didn't wake up. You dont know it. But those who were very close to you, endure the pain.

    From Laura McHolm, Chairman of the Board
    Last night at 6:00pm, Claire Wineland our inspirational founder passed away. She was not in any pain and the medical staff said it was the most peaceful passing they had ever witnessed.
    She was surrounded by love and with her mother Melissa Yeager and father John Wineland; they saw her into this world for her first breath and were with her for her last.
    She suffered a massive stroke on August 26th after a successful double lung transplant. The stroke was caused by a blood clot. After a week of intensive care and various life saving procedures, it became clear that it was Claire’s time to go.
    Yesterday, Claire’s family and a few very close friends came to say their final farewells and offer their support to the family.
    In Claire fashion, she is an organ donor. Claire’s remarkable family were so happy for the other families that were now getting the calls that the organ they had long been waiting for was now available for transplant. They had been on the receiving end of that call just one short week ago.
    We know Claire was loved all over the world. Your prayers, support and encouraging words, have been a huge source of strength for her and her family. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for your massive amazing out pouring of love.
    We are asking to please give the family privacy at this time. They have so generously shared their lovely Claire’s remarkable journey with us all, but now is the time to give them some peace from the public spotlight. They will emerge eventually, but please give them the time to come to terms with their family member's passing.
    In lieu of flowers, the family is asking for donations to be made to Claire’s foundation.
    Claire’s Place Foundation is committed to upholding Claire’s legacy by assisting Cystic Fibrosis families in need.
    In the words of our precious founder Claire Wineland: “Death is Inevitable. Living a life we can be proud of is something we can control.”
    You sure made the whole world proud of you Claire!
    She was one red hot spark of inspiration and joy, wasn’t she? Rest In Peace Sweet Warrior Claire, we will continue where you left off.
    Hug your loved ones close,
    Laura

And don't try to bring others down with you. Especially behind a screen. It won't work.

      Learn how to love and accept people for their differences and their beliefs. Don't bash others and bring them down with you. Don't be that person that spreads nasty negativity, trying to convince people into what you believe. The thing is you're so rude, and it makes you look bad. Understand? That's just the truth. Don't be a bully.

      You don't need to hate yourself.
      It's way better investing your energy in hope, because at the end all that counts is how we filled our lifetime. And hope is so powerful! At some point, you can't fall deeper. And you don't want to get there, so do something! Visit a therapist, set yourself little aims you want to reach and even if you take loads of time to get there, you are working on it and you are doing well.
      I wish you the very best and even though I don't think that I was able to express what I wanted to say because my english just isn't that good, I hope you're gonna be able to get up and rise into this world full of wonders.
      Have a nice day, there's always someone to lean on if you're not okay, but it's important to at least try.
      You are amazing!

The hard part is the change is not always good. You just have to set it aside and talk to someone. Remember your not alone.

I’m so glad to have had her in my life even though I didn’t know her personally. She made the impact that she wanted to have and I hope she knew that. Claire, you’re deeply loved, and will be sorely missed. You’re free now.

    It feels utterly cruel that she had to be one of the unlucky few that have a stroke after the transplant. That's what's really eating at me. The transplant was successful. She was going to get the time she needed to do all she wanted to do. That's why it took me until just now to find out that she died; I saw the initial update after surgery and put it out of my mind, because I thought she was going to be fine.
    I just hope that I can take her perspective on living and dying on board. I'm terrified of death, but to have encountered (even virtually) someone with such a bold, honest take on it all is something that I still value very deeply. Her video about what it's like to die rocked me to my core, and that as well as the videos discussing the transplant were full of reminders that life is good, that good things happen every day, that it's ok to be hopeful for the future. She talked in the transplant videos as well about wanting to do more, to give back something... it hurts to think she wasn't content with the things she had already said, but I wish more than anything that I could let her know that those messages were what she gave back. Her perspective is what she gave back. And it's a gift that I'm still working on accepting, but one that I know I'm better for.
    I'm so, so sorry, Claire.

      You'd give your life to a stranger... no offense, but do you not have a family and friends who love you, or anything to live for? Is your life so empty and meaningless you'd be willing to give it up for a stranger?

    I was fine until her little sister started crying then I just wept. Claire is such an amazing person. May she rest in peace 😭❤️😢

    At 23:11, I found myself crying and then laughing. I absolutely admire Claire's mental strength and sense of humor. I pray her parents and especially her little sister will carry on with Claire's positivity and strength.

    just a psa for anyone who loved this: the channel that "the clairity project" is hosted on was her original channel, but then when it gained traction her editor/producer bullied her out of it saying they own the rights/get to keep ALL the money made off of it. thats right, some business men bullied a dying girl out of her baby channel. her platform, her voice. ive never been so angry.
