There have been many parts to my healing process, including serving as a Board Member with the CONTACT crisis hotline center and speaking to various groups and organizations in an effort to spread suicide awareness.
But most recently, my book Surviving Suicide: Help to Heal Your Heart was published. The book shares a bit of my story, but it also includes the stories of dozens of other people from around the world who also lost someone to suicide. Surviving Suicide is about that loss, but it is also about love and learning, hope and healing.
This portion of my website is dedicated to suicide awareness and survivor support. The articles, links and information presented here will grow and change and evolve - this is our beginning. There is a wealth of information here and at the hundreds of other websites listed under the various links categories.
Please take advantage of the help that is out there if you feel suicidal, or if you know someone at risk. Life is too precious to waste.
"Each day is a chance for you to change your life. Each sunrise offers hope, if only you can open your heart to it. I know it's hard. No one said the path you are on is easy. But reach out to those close to you and recognize that you are not alone. That is one thing I can promise you: you are never alone.
Take care of yourself and be safe on your life's journey. You will find your way home again. You will feel safe again. Look forward to that day because if you let it, it will come."
Thank you,
