Prayers Needed

I would like to ask you to please say a prayer for my neice. She's the one I told you that was getting married in October and was taking financial advantage of her parents (my brother.)

Last night, the guy she intended to marry took a 45 revolver and shot himself in the head. He didn't survive. Not sure of all the details yet, but would like for you to keep her in your prayers.

I feel bad for her, but I didn't know him real well. I just kind of knew that the marriage wouldn't work out in the end....I didn't figure on this happening.

It seems this young man had some troubles. His father has alshimers (sp) and he wasn't handling it very well. He was on anti-depresents. He is not suppose to drink (guess he has a problem with it) and he went with a guy from work and was out drinking for around 6 hours. Anti-depresents and alcohol don't mix!!

Anyway, when he got home, my niece got on to him about his drinking and he went totally crazy. Destroyed their cell phones, actually picked up their big screen TV and threw it against the wall among other things. Dusti was in the bedroom trying to stay away from him and she called her parents to come get her. He tore the door right off the hinges and damaged the door jam.

When she told him her parents were coming he left...walking, he has no drivers license. By then, his mother and sister arrived. While they were gathering up Dusti's belongings, he went to his mother's house, got his fathers 45 handgun and fired a test shot, and then put the gun to his head.

He must have been suicidal before, because his mother, sister and her husband kept making the remark that they hope he didn't do anything to himself. They must have known something.....Dusti just isn't sure.

A very sad situation for Dusti and his family.

That's so sad and I always hate to hear that someone has committed suicide. I'll say a prayer for your niece and all of the family involved.

How sad.
My prayers are going out for them all Janet.
I hope your niece doesn't blame herself since they'd been arguing. It's sad it had to end this way, but she might be lucky she didn't end up married to someone with so severe a set of problems.

HUGS
