i finished the last 1/4 of The Suicide Index.  as with many good books, the ending was a damp squib - i enjoyed the first half of the book more than the last.  a friend took his life in an identical manner a couple of years ago and i was looking for some answers.  i got some understanding - i suspect there are never any answers.

my daughter had to take her wife's 14 year old dog, William, to be put to sleep today.  it went better than expected.  it was the right time.  she said the the vet was so kind.  

we need good people to help us navigate life & death.
