I still mourn the loss of a friend of mine, who actually did commit suicide, not so young, he was in his forties. Was actively getting treatment both medical and with-iin a support group. He went away, and hung himself in a forest. He had all his affairs in order before doing this; so it was a planned thing.
Many of us were shocked at this. Some of us knew his struggles somewhat. But I don't think any of the 700 or so people at his funeral expected this. He was a much beloved man. |
I'm so sorry Gail.
I nearly lost my sister last year to this terrible illness.
