Her father.
At about age 13 that same girl woke up in the hospital with a faint recollection of cartwheeling in the air over the ditch down the road from her house. She'd been hit by a car. Lots of fractures.
Between high school and college this same lady decides to make a go of moving by herself to downtown Louisville, KY where she lands a job selling high-end home audio equipment. One night sleeping in her tiny apartment she is awakened by a man with a knife to her throat...
The surgery for colon cancer went OK and she did well post op. at least for a few days. Something went haywire and she went into hypovolumic shock. Too weak to stand we got her back into the hospital. I watched her cry as they poked her and stuck her with needles being too dehydrated to find a vein. Then the chemo started.
One hip replacement, one MRSA episode, pending hip #2 and a knee replacement and this fine lady serves me dinner most nights.
I think she's my Valentine.

I'm sorry to hear about all this misfortune, she's definitely a survivor.
Is the relevance to this thread that she didn't kill herself?
