Only goes to show how wealth and privilege doesn't seem to cosset one from the vicissitudes of life. It often seems to aggravate them. Terribly said story. I wish them all the best in grieving this sad loss. Ar dheis Dei go raibh a h'anam! RIP. May they find peace and joy in life.

It only goes to show how wealth and privilege doesn't seem to be able to protect you from the vicissitudes of life. In fact, it often seems to aggravate them. Terribly sad story. I wish them all well in coming to terms with their troubles. Ar dheis Dei go raibh a h'anam! RIP.

Anyone who thinks about ending their own lives should seek treatment. Everyone who hears another person express suicidal thoughts should urge them to seek treatment.

Being a Kenned by marriage is like living with a constant super star. So sad.

Alcohol & drug addiction have more to do with the self than the other. No doubt a Kennedy atmosphere would add great stress along with great wealth but we can't blame the partner when the other chooses suicide. And addiction seems to run strong in the Kennedy clan.
