Too close to home

My ex-husband's nephew killed himself this last week.

We don't know exactly why. He had recently moved to Iowa with his fiance', and they were supposed to get married sometime close to Christmas.

He was my ex-sister-in-law's only child. And they had one hell of a rough ride during his childhood. But after all the difficulties, it seemed as if things had evened out for him, that he'd gotten on his feet emotionally and was off to try to live life on his own, make a family of his own...

He was just a year or so older than my oldest son.

He will be missed sorely by those who loved him so dearly.

Rest in peace, Christopher.
