Oh Dianne, I'm so sorry to hear about your daughter. She must have been in so much pain to attempt suicide, and you must have been in pain too. She must be very intelligent to attain so much in a scientific field. I wonder if one of the reasons I didn't have children is because I knew I could not be a perfect mother. The perfectionism kept me from continuing college in my twenties. I had an associate's degree with a 4.0, and I was so afraid of "ruining" it that it took me 20 years to get back to college for a bachelor's. I wish I had some words of wisdom that you can pass on to your daughter in addition to what Eagle has already said. I am so grateful that your daughter did not succeed with her attempt. I hope her health does not suffer any great damage due to trying to achieve the impossible, perfecton. Love and Light, Lynn
