So sorry to hear this Ally- take care of yourself and the rest of your family. Sometimes there is nothing that anyone can do to alter such a course xxx
Its a very distressing time for you and your family. I am so sorry for both your brothers anguish and death and for the pain and heartache that you and your family will be feeling.
Our nephew at 20 hung himself in a carpark. A friend of mine drowned herself intentionally, and two other friends have "faked" suicide bids too. I know the anguish that your family will be feeling.
The coroners court is particularly hard to handle so I hope that your family can help each other (without taking on blame through this).
Our brains are organs as much as a liver or a kidney. Nobody can be sure because of them being internal what is happening to them. Persons left behind do think "what if I had done this, or that?" But it is an organ in a human that has failed and realistically help to that organ may not have worked or it may have just been in an unhappy state permanently. Improvements to have truly happy organs after an illness affecting them is rare...death for some humans whether it due to a liver organ or brain organ is a relief to that person that is suffering.
It is an extremely hard tormentuous time for those left behind to handle but you and your family Ally are in my and all our thoughts....xx
Don't beat yourself up Ally take it a day at a time, do what you have to do to cope, a few disasters are acceptable under the circumstances, take care of yourself.
