According to Kurt Cobain's own words his ongoing stomach pain made his life a misery and drove the anger and passion in his music. He said it drove him to consider suicide, but how seriously I don't know.
About a year before Kurt died he said in an interview that an experimental medication had cured his stomach issue.
Maybe if Kurt never had the earlier chronic pain he may not have turned to heroin and his life may have played out differently. He did a number of rehabs, I believe, with the final one being where he escaped from Exodus in Los Angeles after only a day or so. This was a rehab he didn't want but was forced into by band mates and management to attend.
When Kurt escaped from Exodus he flew back to his home in Seattle and also bought 2 tickets to an undisclosed location for him and an unknown partner. His estranged wife, Courtney Love, was in a hotel in Los Angeles the whole time, high on drugs according to her PI she regularly met and phoned, although she was supposed to be in detox.
Some believe the second plane ticket Cobain bought was for ex-Hole bassist Kristen Pfaff, whom he shared a special bond.
Kurt's wife Courtney cancelled his credit card to leave him standed and helpless when he was in Seattle. Courtney also reported Kurt suicidal while pretending to be his mother to the Seattle police. There is no evidence Kurt was suicidal except Courtney's words and she is a well known and proven liar.
Although Kurt's credit card was cancelled he still apparently had enough cash to buy heroin and was reportedly spending $400 a day on it, a fair chunk, but money from the Nevermind album sales and touring allowed it. As it allowed the purchase of their large home in Seattle, next door to the venerable REM guitarist Peter Buck. I think that was the clincher for buying it. Kurt had great admiration for REM.
Anyhow, his friend Kristen Pfaff died of a heroin overdose that I understand came from her fellow ex-band mate in Hole Eric Erlandson, who may also have been involved with Kurt Cobain's massively incapacitating overdose before he was shot in the head and killed.
Erlandson has gone on record as saying he is responsible for a number of deaths, presumably through giving heroin "hot shots", by accident or by will, I don't know.
Kristen's death was just over 2 months after Kurt died. Kristen had given up hard drugs after leaving Hole and Seattle but something made her return to Seattle where she died. Some question her death as to whether it was an accident or foul play. With Kurt the question is whether it was suicide or murder. Much evidence suggests the latter.
On Earth we may never know the truth about these deaths and many other things, but all truth is recorded in the Akashic record, which can be read in the afterworld, for those interested.
RIP Kristen and Kurt. May they be blissful and creative in their current life.
