Maybe suicide?
He had been battling an illness and lost a daughter couple of years ago.
Whatever we think of footballers in general they are human and hit by personal tragedy themselves.
Maybe all too much for this guy to take in?

Terribly horribly inappropriate and spectacularly unfunny. What sort of sad inadequate posts that?
A real tear-jerking story.
RIP Robert Enke

Now this may be me with my Upton Nervet hat on, so apologies if I offend anyone. However, regardless of their own personal circumstance, no one has the right to take their own life at the expense of endangering others. And it is this trend of thought that leads me to believe that Enke was completely in the wrong to do as he did. I'm sorry for expessing my opinion in this way, but afterall I suppose its a forum, where personal opinions can be expressed?!
I'm sorry for you being put in said predicament where you thought you needed to take your life, RIP.

When someone is in a true suicidal state they tend not to think too clearly

Read this morning that he took his life around 200m from where his daughter is buried. His car was left at the graveyard and it is reported that he left a note in his car.
Hannover president said Enke had been emotionaly unstable since the death of his daughter and had been having psychological treatment to help him.
Had training that morning and was due to go back for another session in the afternoon but never arrived.

Sometimes things reach me emotionally, sometimes they don't, but I find those pics of him with his terminally ill daughter truly soul-wrenching.

Agree. This is a really sad story and as someone else truly brings home that footballers are human.
Wir trauern um Robert Enke.
