Well,
when the survival instinct kicks in (even if it's for 2 seconds) you remove anything that you've considered as an exit strategey. ;)

What a great way to view it! Thank you so much for sharing. I have long since forgiven Pops, and now know how much he would have chosen another outcome for his life.

Thank you for the kind words. His suicide probably did more to shape my life, I was 12-years-old when it happened, than any event I can think of. At first the effect was devastating, but the longer I had to think about it and his love for us, the more I came to understand it. Consequently I have always had a special place in my hear and in my prayers for those who take their own lives and especially for those left to deal with the event.
