Raise your hand if you found a dead body.
06.26.04 (12:23 am)   [edit]
[b]Well, yes I know its been along time between writing in my blog, but hey its the summer and I've discovered sex...woohooo. Who knew it felt good with a woman rather than alone. But I digress

:::Raising hand in the air::: I blogged about Neighbor B (NB just read my archives) & how I discussed he wasn't all there, well now I can honestly say (or type in this case) isn't here any longer in the mortal coil sense.
Oh just how did I discover this little fact?
My next door neighbor (let's call her S) approached me & asked me if I had seen NB in the last 2 weeks, to which I said "no," & I explained that I've been busy, doing the summer thing.
Well, she asked me to see if NB was home or at least alert, because things didn't seem right, so I said just knock on his door. She had this look, like *ummm I don't want to do it*...so I told her I don't have a problem doing it. But NB comes & goes at odd hours & is pretty much a loner. (I don't know of any of his friends but then again not many people know of mine either.) There wasn't any bells or whistles going off here about any wrong doing or apparent change in NB's demeanor like there usually is suicidal people or at least that I would have noticed. SO I ventured across the street & knocked on the door, to which NB's beagle was just barking at me & kept looking to a hallway. NOW I didn't go in but the front door was open & the screen door was shut (it's against the law to just go into someone's house regardless if there dead or not go figure). I did notice the place was a mess looking through the screen door but NB was single & I was once single. So I didn't think anything of it.
Well I went back to across the street to talk to S & tell her I didn't find anything out of the ordinary but I would venture around back & look into some windows to see if NB was home. Most of the windows had blinds on them but the first window on the side of the house didn't & looked in. What I saw next just floored me & I'm on my 3rd Whiskey & cola MUG. I found NB hanging in the closet. I went back to S & said call the authorities now (calmly), she asked why as she dialed them. I told her just dial them & explained NB is dead. S asked are you sure, I said come on, lets go look through the window & you can verify for yourself. She looked in. Sure enough NB was deceased. Hanging yourself can do that do ya.
My girl just came home & asked what happen (we have a 3 yr. old together), I told her leave with the kid, don't come back until I call. But I muttered *suicide* to her. She understood. No child needs to be exposed to the stench of a decaying body or the goings of such a nature. Well, the authorities show up, take statements, & making sure there was no foul play involved in NB's demise. There was a newspaper dated June 14, so it was about 2 weeks when we saw NB alive last. So NB was decaying for about 2 weeks in the summer heat & every time the authorities opened the door to go in, you can only imagine the smell of a body decaying as the wind catches & blows it through the area.
NB's beagle went to animal control (by law its the next of kin right to say what happens any animals of the deceased). S knew that NB had relatives but then again no one knew where they lived or how to contact them in an emergency even tho they lived in the local area.
I still have the image of NB's body hanging there in his closet in my head. The closet wasn't the big or that wide but NB knew what he was doing & did it in this case efficiently. What seem to be a brown leather strap wrapped around his neck & attached to a closet rod for hanging clothes, something draped over him like a brown cloth of some sorts & a chair kicked out.
I can only imagine when I sleep how it will effect me. I'm not sure I want to sleep.
Why NB did this, no one really knows. S said NB had bills building up, his house may have been in fore closure & he was a loner but seemed happy. Only 2 beings know, God & NB.
So if you need help or you know someone like this, get it & if you want to talk, please seek out someone who will listen (they're out there) regardless of your beliefs. Someone will always listen & help you or at least try to point you in the right direction to someone who will.
