With you in the world. I'm glad people helped. My best friend got news about 2 weeks ago that a nephew had committed suicide. He was 27, 3/4 of the way through nursing school, and had been overcoming a drug and alcohol problem. He used a bungie cord to hang himself. He'd asked his mom to buy them for him the day before.
It has left his parents devastated, his grandmother, and his 94 year old great grandmother. Plus can you imagine being the guy's girlfriend and calling up to talk to him and getting.g that kind of news.
He must have been hurting. But he has made sure now that his family and friends all know how it feels,
I'm damn glad you are with us.
