Woman escapes repossession by suicide

It is a sad sign of the times when people feel that they have no choice other than to end their lives.

However, this just highlights the pressures that some people are finding themselves in, as the financial pressures build on ordinary people who have done nothing wrong, apart from trying to get on in the world.

This is highlighted by the actions of a 53 year old woman who on the day that her house was about to be repossessed, she faxed a letter to the mortgage company saying that by the time that they get their hands on her house, she would be dead.

The mortgage company contacted the police, but by the time that they had arrived at the house, the woman was dead, she had shot herself.

This tragedy just highlights the inner feelings of people in this position, when a chain of events can lead to this.
