Medical Forum / Diseases and Disorders / Diabetes / August 2007To Will, Jeff, and Cheri, et. al.
Thanks for the kind words. Sorry if I left anyone out, it's late and I'm sleepy, but at least I'm not hungry (yet). >Thanks for the kind words. > >Sorry if I left anyone out, it's late and I'm sleepy, but at least I'm not >hungry (yet). Hi Fris, Thank you for your genuine humanity... If you are tired, sleepy, etc., it might be a good idea to get some rest. Someday, maybe I shall tell you what it is like to be notified that your much beloved child is an "attempted suicide" in intensive care... I really do very much understand. Will, T2 BTDT ... Girls, girls (both of you), enough of the war stories ... please ? I too, am amongst the 'walking wounded' ...

Maybe not... on the other hand, enough detail can be left out, so that only the basic facts of the situation come out, hopefully in a way that may benefit someone else.

I was not thinking of telling the whole story, though, only enough in a thoughtful and sensitive way that might benefit someone else who may be experiencing a similar difficulty.... There are lots of things of which responsible parents need to be aware in raising children, as I am sure you know. Many people just do not realize how mental health issues can arise to shake a person to his/her very foundations. Afterwards, following a tragedy, people often look back and realize that there were warning signs....

Cheri Having been there, I think you may wish to consider telling it from the viewpoint of yourself and how you lived it. It can be just as poignant and tell a story with a message. Lord knows, I've been in emergency wards to often enough ... and lived through the stress of waiting, hoping and going through the recent past to see how I could have diverted the course of history ...

There is nothing to be ashamed of and you havent gone into specifics. I agree with you completely Loretta >>"Will, T2" <wmmckee@cox.net >>> Hi Fris, [quoted text clipped - 16 lines] > >Cheri Those who have survived their own attempt at suicide and have turned their life around, won't mind it all.

True, it could save somebody elses life, but it's up to them whether they choose to tell the story or not, not somebody else. Big difference IMO. Only the person involved would know whether they mind or not. Cheri Unless you have such a relationship with that person, an understanding, agreement, whatever ,of where the boundaries lay. Ours has been a "family" situation. There was too much "hiding" for too many years that has hurt too many people by keeping secrets. We just found out last week from a good friend of our daughter, that daughter had another brother other than our son in MS. She never knew of Robert (killed) until talking with us while here (she is the rep for the company that provided my bed). Each situation is unique to those individuals involved. Guess we have just lived in such a "fish bowl" existence for so many years that it does not seem out of the ordinary. I think people living in rural communities tend to share the more intimate parts of their lives than those in urban/suburban areas.
