sometimes love is not enough.

HANNOVER, Germany – The German goalkeeper who was struck and killed by a train left a suicide note, police said, and Robert Enke's widow says he had been suffering from depression.

Speaking at a news conference called by his club, Teresa Enke said her 32-year-old husband was afraid their adopted daughter would be taken away from the family if his illness became public knowledge. The couple's biological daughter died three years ago from a heart problem when she was 2.

"I tried to be there for him," Teresa Enke said Wednesday, choking back tears. "When he was acutely depressive, it was a difficult time. We thought we'd manage everything. We thought with love, we could do it. But you can't."

Mrs. Enke said her husband had been afraid that he would lose "his sport, our private life," if his illness had become known. In May, the couple adopted a girl who is now 8 months old.
