For Coco, to prove her own fully-paid lawyer guilty, the opposing lawyer guilty, and the very structures of law and family guilty was impossible while alive. Only a corpse could deliver that judgement. To miss this was to fail to see her.
On December 4, 2025, just after 10 a.m., Coco attempted suicide by hanging herself in a hotel room. After enduring countless days of lifelong torment from her family of origin, she had fled to another city, yet her financial struggles remained unresolved. To fulfill her responsibility toward her cats, to protect herself from further humiliation, and to stop being a supply and tool for her narcissistic mother, she left a suicide note pleading with the police to contact her friend Maggie, as mentioned in the letter. A legal battle, initially fought to claim her rights, had instead left her deeply in debt. As the loop snapped, she fell to the floor.
Through an AI assistant, she obtained the local emergency number, which eventually led to the attention and urgent intervention of the police, fire department, and medical services. She was transferred and admitted to a local psychiatric ward, where for the first time, she gained insight into her early attachment trauma. Her keen perceptiveness allowed her to stay connected with her own experience as a patient, rather than viewing herself through the highly socialized perspectives of doctors or therapists. Perhaps, by remaining in the hospital for an extended period, her life might finally find a renewed sense of hope...
