A student who survived the deadly school shooting in Parkland, Florida, last year has died by suicide, her family said this week. Sydney Aiello graduated last spring from Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School, where months earlier a former student had opened fire, killing 17 people and injuring over a dozen others. Among those killed was 18-year-old Meadow Pollack, a close friend of Aiello’s. Cara Aiello, the teen’s mother, told CBS Miami that her daughter experienced survivor’s guilt and had been diagnosed with post-traumatic stress disorder. She had difficulty attending college classes due to fears about being inside a classroom, her mother said.
