I just went and read much of your post when you came back on the board in your new name.
I remember reading your journey.
Thank you so much for posting - and sharing - and being so very very open.
My x attemtped suicide in July of 2007 and didn't suceed. As with you - he touched base with me when he did it.. The ambulance got there - and he lived. AND as with you I spent time in the ICU with him.. every day..
Since then he has not ever faced his issues.. yet he is "living". YET after reading your post I wonder if he will ever try this again....
What you and your kids have gone through. I am so very sorry. So very sorry.
