In my line of work, I "see" death every day. I see it in the people that come in to probate a will, I see it when people are deciding what kind of "end of life" measures they want taken.
Today, I read a suicide note for a client that took his life the day after he signed a new will. (he had a terminal illness and was in a great deal of pain)
Reading his words brought me to tears at my desk.

That must be difficult. Lean on your support system as I feel you will have some thoughts/issues/feeling about reading the note.
I hope he and his family find peace

I'm sorry. I know how hard it can be.
Most of my career has been working with death in some sort or another. It will wear on you. I'm usually really good. Professional..... whatever that is. But every now and then I just have to have a good cry. Sometimes even when it is unprofessional. Hugs to you!!

I'm sorry you had to see that, but I hope he found peace and his family will find some comfort in not seeing their loved one suffer any longer.
