"Family is with her right now, and we are trying to get her all the help she will need moving forward," Ranaka wrote.

In another comment, where she offered Dineo words of encouragement, Ranaka said her sister embodied strength.

"Strength is you, and YOU are strength," she wrote. "I'm committed to showing you what that means if you can't see it or feel it."

In a series of posts Tuesday, Dineo shared that she understood souls, spirits and people who died by suicide. She said she was trying her best not to commit suicide, but it seemed to not be enough.

Hours later, Dineo's employer, Kaya 959, wished its breakfast show host well after she missed her morning show.

"The Kaya 959 family is keeping Dineo in their hearts, and we wish her healing," MD Colleen Lous said. "We also ask for privacy as Dineo gets through this difficult time."

Sizwe Dhlomo will stand in for Dineo indefinitely.
