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.

Sorry to hear that. During times like these, some think that it is a quick fix and don't think about the people they will hurt. Very selfish.

X a Million!
Hey Ken,
I'm very sorry to hear that. A buddy of mine hanged himself 3 months ago! He left behind a beautiful Wife and 3 beautiful little Girls all under the age of 10. His funeral was as sad as sad could be. Apparently he became very depressed when he lost his job as a Pharm. Rep.
Times are tuff now, the bad economy has touched almost everyone in this Country and beyond. Some took a bigger hit than others. He was pretty well off so everyone is confused as to why this happened. I guess we'll never know what they were thinking when this happens. The pain and suffering these families will deal with their whole lives is a horrible thought. I simply don't understand how they could commit such an act and hurt People they Love so deeply.
Jim
