Hi, Im Emily, Izzys big sister.

On November the 10th, 2006, Isabel ('Izzy') Borau was found dead in her Benhill Avenue
flat in Sutton, Surrey. She had hung herself. Izzy was only 17 years old, a shining star taken away
from us in what can only amount to a moment of madness. Izzy had three older sisters, Emily(me),
Anna and Jenny, and a younger brother, Hannes. Peter, Izzys dad committed suicide in 2005. Kate,
Izzys mum lives in Sutton with Jenny and Hannes.

So many people have asked me to create a website for Izzy. More recently we have experienced a
double tragedy as Anna took her own life on January 11th. There is a separate Gone Too Soon website
for Anna, please visit it.

Nothing compares to the pain of losing a loved one to suicide, but by creating this site I hope I
can reach out to others who knew Izzy, and let them know that they are not alone.

'For everything I touch, you touch,
For every step I take, you take,
For every breath I breath, you breathe,
Every move I make, you make.
I told you we'd make it to the sunshine one day,
You just got there a little quicker'
(Tupac Shakur, The Good Die Young)

Hey Izzy, just found myself thinking of you, have been alot recently.
Don't really know what to say, it still hurts that you're gone and that we never got to grow up together, like we always said we would.
Can't believe you would have been 19 now, it always seemed wierd that you were that much older than me, how you turned ten a lifetime before me, or so it seemed.
I miss those days, when we hardly had anything to worry about. I miss you. Sweet dreams angel, all the love in the world

Why did you have to leave me
why did you have to die?
Was I not meant to keep you
why do I have to cry?
I want you back here with us
things can never be the same
how can I just go on each day
and play life's awful game?
You were my much wanted son
I love you very much
I'll never again see you laugh or cry
or feel your gentle touch
I need to get some answers
my questions seem ignored
I feel so lost and lonely here
oh, help me please my lord
take good care of my son
now you've taken him from me
wrap him tightly in your arms
and kiss him tenderly
please tell him that I love him so
and will wait forever more
and save a place for me one day
when i'll be whole once more

Your presence we miss,
Your memory we treasure,
Loving you always,
Forgetting you never.
No farewell words were spoken,
No time to say goodbye,
You were gone before we knew it,
And only God can tell us why.

So Very Sorry

Last night I thought I heard your voice
And sensed that you were near
But as I woke, just like everyday
The emptiness appeared.

The truth is though, you never left
As I hold you in my heart
And that's the place you'll always stay
Until we're no longer this far apart

So deeply sorry for your losses. Love Shirley, Dan O'Hare's Mother
