So, just a bit of info re: menses.
(Possibly too much info, but...) Yes, you can have a severe enough menses to leave blood all over. I've done it. Have I gone and cleaned it up? Of course, but I've had times where I was literally hemorrhaging badly enough to consider going to the ER.
And, at night, when you're sleeping, you don't always wake in time to prevent accidents. And sometimes, when you wake in the middle of the night, you're not awake enough to clean up all the accidents, or yourself, without taking a shower or getting out the floor cleaning supplies. And I don't know about anyone else, but sleep is too precious for me to start cleaning floors at 2 am.
OK, enough TMI. I'm a grown, 47 year old woman, too, who is not a sloppy mess...but accidents do happen, and they can be pretty messy.
This does not mean that I believe RZ was murdered or suicided. This is MY OWN OPINION, based on quite a few years of personal experience with significant menses.
And BTW, the arguing and sniping and nastiness on this topic has got to stop. There are TO's being handed out, people are being aggressive and attacking the poster, not the information.
It's irritating, and chases other folks off the thread. I have been reluctant to post (and, in fact, read...) because of the bullying and meanness I see.
So knock it off, friends and neighbors. This is a charged case to begin with; debate is possible. It is not necessary to go after each other personally to make your point.
And no, I'm no mod. Just a poster who really likes this site, and don't want to not keep up with a case because of personal attacks.
