It is sad and the fact that in a sense she broke HIPPA laws, because even commenting on a patient's status to someone who is not family or has consent is illegal. Even tho the hospital was on her side, had they pushed to fire her that is something that can ruin any nurses chance at working at a hospital. Poor thing. The Djs should pay for her funeral.

I smell a conspiracy...

Why would she commit suicide over this though? It's not like her mistake of the hoax led to any real problem. The pranksters outed thmselves, so we know they weren't trying to get to Kate for any bad intentions. I can imagine this nurse was reprimanded and she probably felt shame, but that's so terrible to end her life over something so insignificant in the grand scheme of things as this.
