He was always taking about killing himself.

I know he was always talking about that. I just went back thru the posts here, and his sister said his screenname was Kurtzman, and her post was a week before he died. Thats really coincidental. Deb

soft hugs to you for letting us know.
He went on about it for a couple of weeks then he seem fine.
He didnt talk much about it after he posted that he was ending his life.
It's a good reminer to us all that suffer from depression and chronic pain.
If he was treated by a consuller she/he should have seem the signs and placed him in hospital under watch.
If we are feeling down and in pain the thought always crosses the mind and most of the time it's let wait till tomorrow and see what happens.
Life can be unfair towards each and everyone and most people see it as a changelle.

I feel SO VERY VERY SAD for this man...

I think he felt like no one would/could help...

Another CPP died because of crappy care... he needed help and didnt get it. Just tragic.

How sad!!!! My heart goes out to his family.

Kurt was one of my friends, and I emailed Doug three days ago about his post " Kurts", of deceased. Doug hasn't responded to my email. I even tried to go to "report abuse" because it was really disturbing to me and I wasn't sure it was real. So, I am also in the dark, and it is still really disturbing to me. I would think that someone on DS would let us know one way or the other. What was hard for me was that messages were still being sent out from him. So, I don't know either. I know that he was a very tortured person, and I wanted to help. It would be helpful if someone from DS could help us with this one. I thought that was what a group leader was suppose to do? If is is true, we lost another, and it is so very, very, very sad. binet

Debala, thank you for letting me know! This breaks my heart! He battled many demons, yet was always helpful, kind, and supportive to others. I know he had many friends here and will be dearly missed!!!

Love,
Lisa

Debala:
My name is Lorraine. I just came across this post. I had sent a response to another post on here, with regards to what happened to my grandson.
A note was left in his home. In the note, he requested that his account and log-in information be sent to me; so that I could let his close on-line friends know of his passing.
Yes, he IS a very private person and had many trust issues. When we ever got together, it was very difficult to try and get any information out of him; as to how he was doing. He always felt that anything he ever said or did would offend us. He was always afraid of something. But we loved him just the same. He had a difficult life from start to finish. Our family misses him very much.

God Bless Kurt, He will be missed. Its a tragedy for his family and friends. I absolutely know he is in peace now and no longer in pain. I will miss your kindness !!! Deb

GOD BLESS YOU KURT!

Kurt was my newest friend here and although I didnt have the honor of knowing him well, I am deeply saddened for him and his family. I truly believe that our society failed him. I am sad because he is one of many who just cant live in pain and end it.
My deepest sympathy goes to his family and thank you debla and Lorraine for letting us have some closure on our relationship with Kurt. I have to believe that Kurt is in a better place and finally free from emotional and physical pain.

oh this is sad. =( kindest wishes and comfort to the family and i hope he is at peace now.

I didnt know him well at all but in answer to your question; yes I believe that what his sister did put him over the edge. He may have been standing there for a while but as a lot of us know, all you need is that little nudge. This is horrible and call me a jerk but I hope she regrets her actions.

DEAR FRIENDS, I NEED TO SET THE RECORD STRAIGHT:

KURT 31 AND KURTZMAN ARE 2 COMPLETELY DIFFERENT PEOPLE. KURT31 AND KURTZMAN, THE GUY FROM HIS SISTER'S POST, WERE IN NO WAY CONNECTED!!! KURT31 WAS A VALUED, ACTIVE MEMEBER OF THIS GROUP. KURTZMAN HADN'T POSTED ANYTHING, AS FAR AS HIS PROFILE SAYS, SINCE 2007. I KNEW KURT31 PRETTY WELL, HE WAS NOT KURTZMAN.

THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME!

Much love,
Lisa

ALSO, KURT31 HAD POSTED, NOT IN THIS GROUP, THAT HE'D HAD A REOCCURRENCE OF A TUMOR. HE SAID THIS IS WHAT PUT HIM OVER THE EDGE, ALTHOUGH HE WAS DEEPLY TROUBLED FOR THE YEAR I KNEW HIM. FACING HIS OWN MORTALITY AND INCREASING PAIN, KURT31 WANTED TO BE AT PEACE, AND I BELIEVE HE IS NOW.

Much love,
Lisa
