italy and the other european countries are in economic crisis. hundreds of thousands have lost jobs and people are finding it hard to make ends meet. lots of businesses have gone bankcrupt. italian were shocked this week to learn about the suicide of a couple, man and wife. they hanged themselves. they were in debt and were too proud to ask for help. upon learning this, the woman's brother also committed suicide. have you ever been overburdened with problems that you felt helpless and hopeless? what did you do to overcome the situation? i believe that as long as we're alive there's always hope and that whatever problems that we have would be solved and everything will turn out right in the end. what about you, my lotters?

Wow. I cannot imagine what this poor family must have been feeling. It is very stressful not having money for food and for housing. This is so sad.

yes, it must have been hard on them. the wife was receiving pension and the husband was jobless. unfortunately, they couldn't make ends meet.
