*Trigger Warning* Suicide...

Wow, that's a good question.

If you mean who is my Heathcliff in terms of a manipulative, violent and narcissistic psychopath, which is how I see Heathcliff, then it's a person from my past who treated me much the same as Heathcliff treated Isabella.

Hence, my name.

If you mean who is my Heathcliff in terms of a romanticised version of the character, which is not how I see Heathcliff and not how he's meant to be viewed, then ... I actually don't know. I thought I had one of those connections thirty years ago but it's turned out much differently. (Not the same person as above).

Have you read Villette?

Sorry for derailing but I didn't want to ignore your query.

Hugs again!

I just saw this.

I am terribly sorry for this loss and want to say that it sounds to me like you handled it very well. I understand the stress and the unfelt emotions, and it comes at an enormous cost to you, but it was what had to be done and you did it. I believe there is a lot to be said for that...being there for others when they can't cope.

I hope your family will heal in time. I hold you, your husband and your grandson in the Light.

Persephone, this is so sad. I will be praying for her soul & your family's recovery at Mass tomorrow and for the next weeks.
