Default Another Suicide

About 14 months ago my best friend committed suicide. He was depressed, blah, blah, blah. Shot himself and was found Christmas Eve by his only surviving blood relative, his brother. Nice huh?

Now get this. A man I knew pretty well, he was my banker for a number of years and he sailed with myself and FIL, shot and killed himself last week.

This is F'ed up. His wife came home from yoga and he wasn't around. He always made dinner for her on these nights. She checked the bedroom and he was asleep, snoring, so she left him there.

After she ate, watched TV and whatever else it was time for bed. She went in the room and he was still snoring away so she quietly climbed into bed. Into a blood soaked bed! He was still alive! WTF?!?!

He died at the hospital.

I swear, suicide is so selfish. The lack of concern for their families just floors me.
