There is a FB memorial now: https://www.facebook.com/pages/Kayla...40492422765860
Not much on there yet - http://kaylalodesfoundation.org/Home_Page.html
Okay weird - I found who I think is Kayla's mother -
http://www.facebook.com/lizann.lodes?ref=ts&fref=ts
No mention of Catherine? I think Lizann's name before Lodes was Blanton though?
I have a wonderful husband, John & 4 kids. Cadee-22, Clark-18, Kalya-16, & Blake-12. I am a manicurist in Arlington and love my job.
Unless Cadee is Catherine?? http://www.facebook.com/cadee.blanton
Clark - http://www.facebook.com/clark.blanton
ETA - I think I have it figured. Cadee and Clark are Lizann's kids with another partner. Kayla and Blake are Lizann's kids with John.

Here is my theory about why they are waiting for tox. She shot herself when she was drunk or high. And her family are arguing that because of that, she didn't mean to kill herself. And if she was high, they will rule it an accident.
Wrong. Actually lots of y'all's info is wrong. And all the family wants is to grieve privately. None of y'all knew Kayla. To assume you think you knew what happened is hurtful and ignorant. I don't understand why y'all think it's any of your business in the first place. Did any of you know her? Any of you cry over her passing? Do any of you lose sleep because you miss her? No? Then why do you care? Why are you creeping people's Facebook pages?
And lots of y'all's info is wrong. So maybe you aren't even very good at this.
What's right is privacy and respect for the dead and our grieving family.
And the report that shouldn't have been available has been removed.
Sorry for your loss. Many people are brought here through the loss of a loved one. Sometimes they share stories as to what kind of person their loved one was. It can be therapeutic. It's much easier to talk to strangers than people IRL. No judgements or bias.
Again, sorry for your loss.
Congrats on noticing my subtle screen name. Very astute.
Y'all should do some ambien research though, it's very interesting and I would love more people to be aware of what it can do.
I can see how this forum might help some grieving people, however so far this post about our dear Kayla has been a bunch of strangers being nosy and all up in our business. That doesn't help us, it very much upsets us.
I understand it can be very upsetting when a loved one finds this site. It's confusing as to why it's here. Someone who knew Kayla more than likely submitted her death. That's typically how deaths are added to this site. I don't want to definitively say 100% because I do not receive the submissions. Some people submit the death of a loved one because they want to keep their memory alive. Many, if not all, of the online obituaries that allow comments are temporary. It may seem like a bunch of us are nosy. I guess we are. I know I like to see what kind of person they are. I like reading all of the great things that this person has done and how many lives they have touched. I like to read about all their quirks and ornery things they did. I love to read about how much they loved their pets and what a great friend or family member they were.
It's like reading the obituary in the newspaper and never knowing their story. Have you ever read an obituary in the paper, or seen a death on the news and wondered anything about their life? That's kind of my reasoning. I also wonder what the circumstances of their death is. Especially when it is a young person. I know when I have seen an obit in the newspaper accompanied with a picture of a young person, I wonder what happened. And when it is a suicide, I personally always wonder why, especially when everything seemed fine. I really think we all have that curiosity.
Everything that has been posted on here is from a public source. I don't want you to think/feel/believe that anyone has snuck information on here. It's all available to the public and is the same information the media acquires when reporting a story.
Does your screen name have anything to do with Kayla? I'm only asking because of your comment about doing the research on Ambien.
Again, I am sorry for your loss. Kayla seemed like a very bright, intelligent, fun-loving, and caring person. I hope that you will be able to come here and share your stories with us. There are many family members and friends, of those who have passed, on here. I hope you are able to find peace with Kayla's passing, in time.
Unfortunately the report y'all found was not supposed to be public. That was an error within the police department. It was brought to their attention and corrected. So a lot of the information y'all dug up wouldn't have been available to you if not for that mistake.
And again, several of y'all have made assumptions that are incorrect. I will not correct them because frankly it's none of your business.
That's unfortunate that the police department made a mistake. At the time of it's availability, it was public record, and not our mistake. All we can do is speculate. I think everyone does that around the dinner table, watching the news, reading the news online, and talking about it "around the water cooler." This forum just happens to be our water cooler. Nothing is meant to be offensive because it is all public resources. Remember, there were tweets and FB posts that provided some insight to what may have happened.
Personally, I don't mind if you don't correct the inconsistencies of Kayla's passing. She was your friend/family member and I can respect that.
Again, you have my heart felt condolences in the loss of your friend/family member. I still hope that, one day, you will come back and share stories of Kayla. She sounds like a very delightful young woman.
Take care, and peace to you.
My mother takes this as well and now I am worried. I almost lost her to heart issues two years ago and have been worried about her health ever since.
I am sorry for the loss of Kayla. She was beautiful and had one of those smiles that I imagine lit up the room.
I've taken Ambien in the past and loved it. It's the only thing I've found that knocks me out and six hours later I wake up feeling like I slept twelve. I would have to have my nightly routine completed before taking it because it only took 10-15 minutes to knock me out. As soon as I took it, I went straight to bed. Ten to fifteen minutes later I was 'ohh' and out.
I take Xanax when I go to bed and that kicks in pretty quickly too. I've heard of people sleepwalking/eating if they take Ambien and don't go to bed right away.
If my Xanax didn't help me like it does, I would try Ambien. My mom says it really works for her. I can't sleep without help because I would just stay up all night worrying about crap.
