A sorrowful day...
I feel like I could cry. I feel so incredibly sorry for my neighbor and the pain she is going through right now. Her husband, Tom, had a head injury not too long ago... Last night he was threating her and her kid last night and they called the police but the police said it was nothing to worry about, and that everything would be fine.
Well, Melissa and her daughter stayed the night at her mom's house and left Tom at home alone because Melissa was afraid he still might hurt her, or their baby.
This morning, she came running over, pounding on our door. The next thing I knew my dad was shouting to my sister downstairs and he had her take Bailey, their daughter...
Tom shot himself in the head...
When Melissa got home this morning and found him like that, he was staggering for breath. She called 911 and she ran over here and my mom and dad threw on clothes and went over and had to see the blood spewing out of his mouth. The whole couch was stained with blood covering most of near where he was sitting.
I guess when my parents wen over there they discovered that he put the gun on the inside of his mouth and it hit the back of the skull and came almost out the front of the forehead.
This could have all been prevented had we had a good neurologist in the Valley to help himself and the family out - my parents could have used one when I had my head injury. Anyways...
He was taken to St. Joes this morning. I have learned from my dad that he found out from Melissa that he was still alive until 2 pm this afternoon. The whole time he was still staggering for air to breathe. At 2 pm today, he opened his eyes one last time and a few tear drops fell down his face and he died.
