I knew of a women who lived inour neighborhood who committed suicide by stabbing herself in the heart. She lived with mental illness much of her life. When the police first arrived at the scene they had 'detained' the husband, because obviously due to the nature of the incident, as the police said no one would kill themselves but stabbing themsleves in the heart! The husband was present when she killed herself, as she knew she was going into another major round of depression. The last thing she said to her husband before she lifted the knife up and killed herself was, "I'm not going to go through this again." The took the husband immediatley to the precinct so he wasn't even able to be with his wife when they transported her to the hospital. When the coroner arrived at the scene about an hour or so later, the coroner immediately told the police that this was definitley a self inflicted wound, and the husband was released. I can't imagine how one gets themselves in to such a depth of darkness to kill themselves in such a horrific manner.
