Dear Linda, you are on such a journey. I had no idea that Ted Hughes' second (or which #???) wife had also killed herself just like Sylvia Plath. I see her name, and now see also that this poor woman had also killed their child.

This makes what Alan did to me look like jack diddley. I had absolutely NO idea of any of this except about Sylvia Plath's depression and tragic suicide.

So being closer to Baba than that, I never seriously considered suicide after Anthony died. I had a daughter who depended on me and I could not take time out or abandon her.

Wow. I love ya Linda, these are all such devastating things to read.
