He revealed that he had obtained the point where “I was sitting in my room. I had my rifle, and I had a ball, and I pressed the relaxation, and the pistol clicked, but nothing happened.”
“To this day, I think that God simply did not let me commit suicide because I do not know why it did not go. I took the sign of” I may be here for a reason “, it was then that I started to look at myself in the mirror after the pistol did not dirty,” said Duran in the documents, by ESPN. “I said to myself:” Do I want to be here, or don’t I want to be here? It happened for a reason, and obviously you are here for a reason, so let’s be how you want to be and play [the way] You want to play and live as you want to live. ‘”
