[QUOTE="myfirstandlast, post: 403680, member: 3420"] No investigation. It was clear what had happened, and there was a long note. I won't say what it included, but it didn't mention me at all, and the kids were just mentioned at the end, make sure _____ gets this of mine, and tell them I died of a heart attack instead. Of course no one was willing to lie to the kids for the rest of their lives. I just can't imagine him sitting on these thoughts for 3+ years. We've had lots of good times, and of course other fights, where nothing remotely like this ever came out. There were no recent life-changing events; it is not the anniversary of his death or his birthday or anything, I had been remarried for more than a year when it happened and things are stable between my husband and I. It's just inexplicable. The kids were in therapy before and after their dad's death, dealing with the divorce and other stuff. Haven't been going in a while. Neither of them seemed to be getting anything out of it after a while, just going thru the motions. I have no idea what he's going to be like when I get home from work. :/ Sometimes he's still mad. Sometimes he acts like nothing happened, and if I don't also act like nothing happened, we're right back at blow-up stage. Wish there were somewhere he could go and cool off for a few days that wouldn't make things worse. [/QUOTE]
