Question

　　One morning in April, Jim Reed checked his e-mail. He found a strange message on the e-mail. It was from a woman in Pittsburgh, Pennsyl-vania. He had talked to her on e-mail many times in the last ten days. All the other messages were fun and interesting to read. This message was different.

　　The message said, “Goodbye loved kowjing yu I am leaving.”

　　Mr. Reed was frightened by the message. He tried to understand the words that were not spelled right. He quickly wrote a message to his new friend.

　　“What do you mean by the message you just sent me?”

　　He waited, but didn't get an answer. He wrote back, “Please talk to me.”

　　Finally, she wrote, “I am falling asleep. Want to say goodbye to my friends.” Mr. Reed thought hard about this message. “Is she going to kill herself?” he thought.

　　“What is your phone number?” he typed. The woman sent a phone number. Mr. Reed called. At first the phone was busy. Then it just rang and rang. He called the police in Pittsburgh, and told them his story. Then he faxed them what his friend wrote.

　　The police and paramedics quickly went to the woman's house. When she didn't answer the doorbell, they broke in. They found her on the floor near the computer. She told them, “I took 60 pills.” The paramedics rushed her to the hospital.
