We don't know what his relationship with his wife is, or what his capacity is to ask for help or to organize and execute a crowdfunding campaign(!).
A very unfortunate irony of mental illness is that it interferes with the person's emotional and cognitive ability to solve their problems. It's like telling someone with a broken leg that they 'should' run and get help. But at least with a broken leg you have the capacity and will to figure out what you want to do and to try to do it.
- mgkimsal 10y ago> We don't know what his relationship with his wife is Especially in the last few days, if he was arranging for a sale of the house, that would necessitate a move. Certainly wouldn't be unheard of to spring this last minute, but I suspect he'd prepped the family for a move, and likely would have needed his wife's signatures on some paperwork at minimum (canada may be different than the US states I've lived in).
