Hmmm.. I honestly can't member at the moment. Esme does tell Bella that she did try to kill herself after her infant son had died. But I recall little else. Meyer did print a book about many of the character's backstories. Supposedly, Esme had met Carlisle when she was a young girl. She had broken her leg when she fell from a tree. Years later, an adult Esme ran away from her abusive husband. She gave birth to her son, he died, then she tried to kill herself. She was still alive, and Carlisle could still hear her heart beat. He quickly took her and changed her... they eventually fell in love and were married. When Edward was going on his 'walkabout' - when he had left Carlisle's coven, Edward ended up killing many people - one of which was Esme's abusive husband.
