The rising athlete died in an apparent suicide in her Stanford University dorm room on Friday after struggling with mental health problems.
Olympic cyclist Kelly Catlin who was found dead in her Stanford dorm room reportedly spoke to her sister about her struggles in the weeks leading up to her death.
In a conversation with People, Christine Catlin, 23, spoke of her conversation with the 23-year-old who was found dead last Friday. “On the phone, she went back and forth from saying she was learning to appreciate things and enjoy life to saying if things didn’t change in a month, she was probably still going to kill herself,” she said.
“This was only two weeks ago. I thought we had more time. My last words to her were, ‘Please don’t kill yourself.’ “
