Weight Loss Forum / General Topics / August 2006Update on my wife
Had a stroke. Went back to hospital. Is back home. She died inside. Her body is still here, and I have to take care of it. But Kristen is gone. I am investigating the best suicide methods for myself. The boys will be cared for, I hope. What a strange road. Bye. -Mitch > Had a stroke. Went back to hospital. Is back home. > She died inside. Her body is still here, and I have to take care of > it. But Kristen is gone. > > I am investigating the best suicide methods for myself. Please don't do that. Your children need you now more than ever. There are NGs for depression and grief. Please seek some comfort or help. Talk to your priest or Reverend. Seek professional counseling. People are there to help you. Suicide is not the answer. > The boys will be cared for, I hope. > > What a strange road. LW Re-Start - 7/5/06 - 170lbs Today - 158 lbs Goal - 130 lbs Height: 5'6" Age: 61 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Mitch, I don't know your history, but I'm truly, truly sorry for your loss. It sounds like you are being very brash right now. I sincerely hope you are not considering suicide. You need to be alive to see the rest of your life through with your children, and to keep the memory and memories of your partner alive. Killing yourself won't do that. Know that many of us are here for you. HS > Had a stroke. Went back to hospital. Is back home. > [quoted text clipped - 10 lines] > > -Mitch > Had a stroke. Went back to hospital. Is back home. > > She died inside. Her body is still here, and I have to take care of > it. But Kristen is gone. Oh, come on now. Just a week ago you agreed such talk was exaggerated and premature. It still is. > I am investigating the best suicide methods for myself. Mitch, please, contact the nearest mental health professional immediately. Not this evening, not tomorrow, not next week, but now. > The boys will be cared for, I hope. They will be cared for by you, and grow up to be strong men. If you destroy yourself you will blight their lives. I know you love them too much to carry out this act. Again, please seek help immediately. Do it for yourself, and for them. If it helps, my email address is chessnews at mindspring dot com. I won't be back online till about 7 this evening, but if you want to email me, I will reply then. Neil 385/299/200 > > Had a stroke. Went back to hospital. Is back home. > > [quoted text clipped - 22 lines] > Neil > 385/299/200 Mitch, if you are out there, respond to someone here. Neil Mitch, I'm so terribly sorry! But PLEASE take care of yourself. As others have said, your children need you! If you haven't already found someone to talk to who can help, please do this now. And write back to us to let us know you're still okay! You and your family are still in my prayers. Chris > Had a stroke. Went back to hospital. Is back home. > [quoted text clipped - 10 lines] > > -Mitch Please Mitch, consider getting help, and consider just how much your children--and the rest of your family--need you now. We're all praying for you... Amy > Had a stroke. Went back to hospital. Is back home. > [quoted text clipped - 10 lines] > > -Mitch Please seek help, Mitch. This is a devastating loss but your boys will need you now more than they ever have. You and your family continue to be in my thoughts and prayers. Beverly Mitch, thoughts and prayers and hopes are all with you. Other people are counting on you to get through this, as awful as it is. don't...your kids will be messed up mentally if you take your life...i knew a guy in the army whose dad commited suicide and it had a negative effect on his life...get help > Had a stroke.

Is back home. > [quoted text clipped - 10 lines] > > -Mitch As horrible as this situation is you have come too far and worked too hard to consider such a drastic option. The only thing that could possibly be worse for a child than losing one parent is losing both, they will need to be cared for by you. I'm sure your wife wouldnt want this, things can only improve with time. >From somebody fortunate enough to have not had to face such a terrible ordeal and therefore not qualified to judge I wish you and your family all the very best. Keep your options open mate, you owe it to yourself, your kids and your wife. > Had a stroke. Went back to hospital. Is back home. > [quoted text clipped - 10 lines] > > -Mitch Please get some help. Your boys need you and they will miss you and want you back if you go. Mitch, This past spring my sister in law passed away from a sudden heart attack. She was on life support for a week before she finally let go. She left behind two young children to be cared for by there father. It is a strange road. Your boy's mom has been taken away from them, they need you more than ever now. > Had a stroke. Went back to hospital. Is back home. > [quoted text clipped - 10 lines] > > -Mitch > Had a stroke. Went back to hospital. Is back home. > [quoted text clipped - 4 lines] > > The boys will be cared for, I hope. I am terribly sorry for your loss, but what bullshit! You would devastate your children, who just lost their mother, by committing suicide? You of course must realize that you are setting them up for a lifetime of difficulties and emotional issues? Please get a grip and get some help. I just found this thread after not tuning into the group for awhile. Does anyone know Mitch or have another way to contact him? What do we do in a case like this-will Google do anything to contact him? This is a dangerous situation and a cry for help-and should be taken seriously. Mitch-I am so very sorry about your tragic situation. Please contact a mental health professional if you haven't by now. Go to a hospital Er if you have to-they will help hook you up with the right resources. Your problems and challenges are great, but there is hope and help out there. I hope that you check back and can let the group know that you are OK. I'm praying for you and your family.

Chris 262/130s/130s started dieting July 2002, maintaining since June 2004 Is there anything we can do? Does anyone out there know how to reach him? He was always so positive and inspiring to others. This gives me a sick feeling. Michaela > >I just found this thread after not tuning into the group for awhile. > >Does anyone know Mitch or have another way to contact him?

I couldn't get a match. Mitch, if you are out there, please post and tell us how you are. Neil Thanks for doing that Neil. My husband mentioned that Google monitors the groups and might have been able to track him down thru his ISP. What do you think? You can't see anything under his profile, which seems a little strange. We can only hope that he is OK and will post soon. Michaela > Thanks for doing that Neil.

Age: 61 Don't worry about what people think, they don't do it very often. =================================== > Had a stroke. Went back to hospital. Is back home. > > She died inside. Her body is still here, and I have to take care of > it. But Kristen is gone. This is horrible. I'm so sorry to hear this. I hope you've found some reason to hope since you wrote this. > I am investigating the best suicide methods for myself. How about you hold off on doing that for a little while. Okay? I know you're in wrenching pain, but keep breathing, in and out, over and over again. Can you just do that for a little while longer until you can imagine a future? Because right now you can't imagine one but you'll be able to in a little while. In fact, it's been two weeks since you wrote this. Are you starting to see any way through? > The boys will be cared for, I hope. Boys need a father. > What a strange road. Anyone who has ever loved has felt pain. This isn't a strange road, this is the ONLY road. I'm so sorry that you're in a bad place on it, but you CAN make it through. Countless others have. You can to. The secret is to just focus on breathing in and out, over and over again. > Bye. Come back, please. > -Mitch Dally |
