A heart-broken tragedy

This afternoon I heard a heart-broken tragedy. A couple I know went to heaven within two weeks, left a 20ish son behind.

The wife was diagnosed with cancer several years ago, but the treatment was unsuccessful and died last week. The husband committed suicide this morning by throwing himself to river in the coldest weather with a temperature of minus 38, which feels like minus 50.

 I felt so sad after hearing this that I could not finish the work but went home early. I am thinking what a reasonable action under such a condition would be when your loved one passed away unexpectely, and what is a suitable way to survive through a stressful time like this.

Suicide needs courage. I could not image the desperate and stress the husband beared. It must overwhele and exceed the limit he could handle by himself. How hard it would be for the son to lose both parents in two weeks, and how could he survive this? I could not imagine. Life is not easy, especially for first generation of immigration families.  

What would you do or what is your suggestion for such a situation?

May God bless the couple with peace and love in heaven.

Amen! Pray in Jesus name.

• 我也觉得丈夫可能早就有忧郁症了，只是以前更关注太太的病情而没重视。这自杀给亲人留下的创伤太大了，孩子可怜。 -树的花花世界- ♀ 给 树的花花世界 发送悄悄话 树的花花世界 的博客首页 (0 bytes) () 02/10/2021 postreply 07:07:42
