Life is what you make of it, too many people are taken by freak accidents in the prime of their life with no explanation while others choose to end theirs because life gets a little difficult.... thats not a good enough reason to me.

    I must have missed the bit where it called it suicide!

    Just because the police aren't treating it as suspicious doesn't mean it was suicide.

    How about waiting to get all the facts before running off at the mouth.

    Selfish it might be but some people will do anything to make the pain stop. They don't consider how others are feeling about THEIR pain. Anyway, let's leave the speculation out and concentrate on the facts, eh? :-/

    Re-read my first post and youll see i assumed it was not suicide as there is no mention of it in the report as you say - assumed she either tried getting across the track on foot or was stood past the painted line on the platform.

    or maybe just tripped and fell?? as it was said above we know nothing about what happened.....so i would assume nothing at this stage personally....... wait until the facts come out, then cast your judgements i say.

    As above I mentioned it MIGHT be suicide and a debate followed from that. I dont think anyone actually assumed it was suicide.

    When it's your time to go it's your time, so don't let it catch you.

    Just as well no-one has to explain themselves to you then isnt it ???

    No suicide is as simple as the way you portray it !!!! So until you have walked a mile in the shoes of a person who cant see their way out or whatever reason makes them so low then I suggest you stop being so judgemental !!!!!!!

    I'd like to question why the OP posted it at all? So what, i could post a hundred articles linking to a tragic death today, what was the point?
