MARTINEZ LOPEZ, María Dolores. The tragic breakind with life: Experience of a survivor facing with the suicide. Index Enferm [online]. 2009, vol.18, n.4, pp.272-275. ISSN 1699-5988.

Through out the biographical statement we describe the tensions production that were developed in Francisco's environment before committing the suicide. In an attempt of explaining the succession of events within his vital path, a linear health decline is observed throughout the months, truncated by an attempt of suicide, and with the effective outcome of the self-destructive intention. Therefore we describe the sorrow of the survivor, which reports some intense loss and guilt feelings during her daily scene, showing a torture without hope.
