Yes, twice, once in the early seventies, then late last year. The latest was someone with very severe late stage cancer – I understand that, the first I have never understood. It was a girl who seemingly had everything going for her. I have always wondered whether it was really a suicide. I was not there when it happened, but the coroner’s finding was suicide. She was a friend, not a girlfriend. Suicide is all about timing. The mood passes. Many people have come close, some have made genuine (as against attention getting) attempts that have failed and then gone on to lead normal lives.
