Having said this, it is very difficult handling cases of suicide, especially with our family members. Too often the family overlooks signs of suicide, ignore it and it will go away and in some cases even the professionals are unable to help. Professionals has said unless you have had thoughts of suicide the you do not understand what this person is feeling. As much as we want fairness, it must go both ways. No, the trooper was surely not in best form (have had a bad experience myself) this was a young lady in trouble, knowing of two attempts in recent past, sometimes they become completers.
