1 to Many,
I know too many people who have killed themselves. 1 is too many.
Last Sunday night, my brother thought the best/only way to deal with his pain was to kill himself. We probably thought he couldn’t or wouldn’t - but he did.
He was only 35 years old leading a seemingly happy and complete life. Sadly, his story is not unusual.
According to the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention approximately 120 Americans die by suicide every single day. Men die by suicide 3.53x more often than women.
Is there anything that can be done to lower that number?
What I can I do?
What can we do?

My baby brother succumbed to an illness that I cannot even begin to understand. I don’t know what it’s like to be that sad, but it’s about time I find out.
