So he's got the hang of the jumping, just needs a bit of work on the landing

Can't believe even Bumrungrad couldn't improve his condition from being dead.

I'd assumed that's why people pay the big bucks.

Thai wife or Dutch wife ?

Hard to get ones head around a 31 yr old who has his wife with him and who decides to end it all off the 40th floor.
Bizarre.

Poor Bugger ... 31 ... he had his whole life in-front of him.

So much time to reshape a life.

Hit the reset button and start again.

Sadly, not an option now.

he could try the reshape button?

He cannot try anything now...RIP, young man...

Call me harsh but it's all a rather selfish, cry baby and attention seeking way to prove a point.
Wonder if the wife was at fault in any way, or any kind of social media, phone or sms records were factors

harsh ^
