🇨🇦 SteveI'm definitely asking my wife for a nice long hug when I get home, yeesh, what a day.
The cops weren't commenting but suicide is sounding the most likely.
Scene's clear now. Sidewalk's been washed. Like it never happened.
Larry Anderson 🕊️@tewha I've never witnessed a suicide, although I'm the one who found my brother, but I have witnessed someone being killed in a car accident (two cars colliding on a cross street at speed while I was waiting at the light). It's hard to integrate.
creednmd@larand @tewha sorry to hear that. I helped cut down a neighbour who hung himself, and administered CPR until medics arrived on scene. Turned out it made no difference, as he was too long gone. Very glad I have aphantasia (inability to visualise things), so can’t ever bring to mind the image of the event, but still sticks with me, and even now wonder what I could have done differently.
