That's interesting - my mother periodically threatened suicide - usually in response to something she was accusing me of doing - and left her copy of final Exit where she knew I would find it. I first started thinking of suicide as an option for myself in 7th grade, age 11.
In the end, she wound up killing herself slowly by not seeking medical care for a lump in her breast. By the time I came home from college for spring break and dragged her to ther hospital, the tumor had grown into her chest wall and she died several years later.
