DE,

I agree with you on this - anyone who has ever lost anyone important to them, our pets included, knows that anger is a stage of grief. I have to wonder how much of this is comprised of parents, friends and family trying desperately to think of any reason why their son/daughter/mother/father/brother/sister/cousin "did" this. It is much easier to blame something that their loved one ingested rather than to examine their own behavior. This is not to say that all family members of all people that commit suicide are to blame, this is to say that grief is a terrible burden and its very human to want to shift that burden onto something inanimate. A tragedy like suicide is terrifying.

some of it's magic
some of it's tragic
but i had a good life all the way......
