I had a elderly lady friend who was a great lady.Her husband was a well known Dr.
She had been sober quite a long time.
one day I noticed she hadn`t been around much.When I did see her,she looked different.Her appearance was worst,she was letting herself go,
not dressing as nice as she used too,her hair,etc
Then one day I got a call,she was in the hospital,she had stabbed herself and later on died.Looking back,we could see where she was slipping away.It is hard to spot at the time,but look for outwards appearances ,sometimes IT is a sign of a worsting inner state
