Three young girls are dead and another is in serious condition after their
mother shot them in the head and then turned the gun on herself in
Wyoming, authorities said.
 The mom called 911 on Monday afternoon to report that her four daughters
had been shot in her home in Big Horn County, the local sheriff's office
said.
 The woman  whom local media later identified as 32-year-old Tranyelle
Harshman  told the dispatcher where the girls were located in the house
before abruptly cutting the call.
 When officers arrived, they discovered the girls with gunshot wounds to
their heads, along with their mother, who had apparently turned the gun on
herself.
 Only one of the girls, a 7-year-old, survived. Her three sisters  a 9-
year-old and two 2-year-olds born less than a year apart  were killed,
according to MTN News.
 Harshman was found alive but later succumbed to her wounds.
 Police are still investigating the circumstances behind the tragedy, but
Harshman's husband Cliff Harshman told Cowboy State Daily that his wife
had been receiving treatment for severe mental health issues, including
PTSD and postpartum depression.
 "My wife is not a monster," he told the outlet, weeping. "Most people
don't understand how that affects the brain. It's a chemical imbalance ...
And it can be exacerbated by trying to fix it with medication."
 Cliff Harshman is the biological father of the two youngest victims and
had been helping raise the older two  one of whom is now clinging to life
in a Salt Lake City hospital.
 Friends launched a Kickstarter fundraiser to help pay her medical bills.
 "Cliff Harshman, a devoted husband and father of four beautiful daughters,
has suffered an unimaginable loss," the fundraiser's page reads.
