As a nurse, I have seen so many suicide attempts.

Two days before Christmas one year, one woman HID THE PHONES, DISABLED THE CAR, then overdosed on drugs while her husband and children were there!

So - the husband found himself walking miles to get help, while the children (ages 5-12) were left at home with their unconscious mother (who they thought was dying or dead).

I had to take care of her in the ICU, while she was on life support. (Unfortunately, these people ALWAYS recover.) I called child protective services, and the children were permanently removed from the home. It turns out that this was her "last chance." She had abused and neglected those children in the past, and her husband was just as bad as she was.

Some people care only about themselves - and even seem to enjoy hurting other people. "The devil loves company," as they always say.

I have seen her since then - and I didn't feel one gram of guilt or remorse when I saw that she didn't get her kids back. I just hope they're somewhere where they don't have to watch people abuse drugs and where they're getting fed every day.
