Sibling Loss / SISTER IN-LAW LOOSES HER BROTHER IN-LAW
« on: May 30, 2008, 11:02:02 AM »
This is my first time here but I was thinking if I could get my feelings out maybe I could begin to heal and maybe than I could help my family deal with there loss and pain.
My brother in-law took his life in December 07 just a few weeks before Christmas.
He made an attempt on his life only 6 months prior to that. My husband and I live about 250 miles away but we would call him to see how things were going and he assured us that he was OK.
We knew that he was having problems at home with his wife and one of his sons and we knew that he was struggling financially as well. We tried to help him out as much as we could with his finance troubles but we just had no idea that he would make another attempt on his life. He PROMISED us that he would never do that again. I feel/ his family feels that his wife basically drove him to pull the trigger. I can not get past the things I have heard him say about his home life and the things his wife would say to him and do to him. Now, there have been so much gossip in the small town and we have no idea what to believe.
I am so angry with him but even more so with his wife and children. They even took him to buy a gun on at least one occasion. I try to be a good person; I try to live a Christian life so why can’t I get past this? I pray to God everyday to take this hurt and anger from my heart. I don’t wish anything bad to happened to his wife or children I just don’t want to see them or talk to them. I no longer see them as part of our family and dread the idea of running into them when we go back for a visit.
If there is anyone out here that can help me with this I am deeply appreciative.
