This year's community walk for the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention is approaching, fast. K & I are starting off with a modest goal of $100, since we've tapped friends and family for years. I'm also trying to tap into my place of employment, to see if they'll hop aboard.
It's been almost five years now since my good friend Jon Thompson passed away, and fourteen since K's brother Ryan also took his own life. As much as we would like to have some of our questions answered, the pain never really goes away, and we soldier on.
