It’s bad enough being suicidal. But why go on a cruise, then do it, and ruin the trip for everybody? It’s not their fault that you decided to reject your life. That’s one last act of needless cruelty.
“But why go on a cruise, then do it, and ruin the trip for everybody?”
A couple years ago we were on a cruise and the very first night one of the passengers — a man in the singles group — died on the dance floor. Even though we didn’t know the person, for those saw or heard about what happened, it did have a sobering result. Believe it or not, most passengers didn’t know about it. They put a small tent thing around the man until help came, took him away in a gurney, and the activities continued. The fact that people were dancing again within a half-hour might be the creepiest part.
We went on Carnival once. I never considered suicide, but it could’ve been a way off the ship, I guess. Suicide is harsh.
Maybe she was defecting to the Bahamas.....
