A "slip" which saved her life

[Christine Animal]

A forty-four year old woman who tried to commit suicide by jumping off a cliff on the Seine estuary was found alive two days later.  After someone noticed her car which had been left nearby she was found weak and dehydrated about 70 metres above ground on the cliffside and was lifted by helicopter.  They think she must have slipped when she tried to jump.

Poor woman. Got to feel for her. Committing suicide would be hard enough without the agony of being stuck on your own for two days realising you'd stuffed the whole thing up. Hope life turns round for her.

Well she clearly regretted the attempt otherwise I imagine she would had jumped again????

Good she had the chance to reconsider....but not the best way.

Perhaps now she'll be able to get the support she clearly needs.

I wish her well.

It was on the news last night.  She landed in some bushes and it must have been very dangerous to rescue her as they said the helicopter's propellers were only a metre away from the cliff.

Yes, I hope too that the poor womand gets plenty of help and support.

How refreshing to be a new member here and to find that no one has damned this poor woman, but only had sympathy and understanding for her.
