Clarke Carlisle fighting for his life

[edna krabappel]

Which link said it was (or elsewhere)? I must have missed it, only saw reference to his previous admission of having suicidal thoughts when suffering acute depression...

There are a fair few (unconfirmed, but generally collaborative) reports going around which would suggest a suicide attempt, as would reading between the lines of most of the media releases. Whether it turns out to be the case or not: Christmas can be such a tough time for people who struggle with depression and mental health issues anyway. I can't imagine how hard it must be if you're suffering through life, to watch everyone else enjoying themselves and having to endure the general presumption that December is one long party.

Hope he pulls through, he always came over as a decent, intelligent man.

I feel for the lorry driver. He must be going through hell at the moment.

I hope the news that his injuries are not life threatening are accurate.

I'm sure the BBC said he was " Fighting for his life " earlier ? ah well, sounds like it's not as bad as first feared.

A decent bloke.
Hope he's OK.

 

[Iggle Piggle]

It's been reported that he was a pedestrian. Without knowing the facts it does point to a suicide attempt

I really hope he pulls though....wasn't he once voted the most intelligent footballer in a university vote...Pull through Clarke....

Great news for him and his family/friends. I was wondering the other day how he was getting on.
