November 22nd is Survivors of Su***de Loss Day, and we want to acknowledge and to recognize ALL survivors of su***de loss today.
As I reflect on this day, this year has been especially poignant for me and my family. This summer, my 17-year-old son, Thomas A. Brown, walked right by me without saying one word, went into his bedroom, closed the door, and quietly ended his own life. Although Thomas was actively seeing a psychiatrist, meeting with two different therapists, attending family therapy, and taking his medications, he made a decision that changed his life and our family's lives forever. Sadly, help was merely steps away.
I am not sure if the dust ever settles, but I can honestly say that I find comfort in knowing that we did everything we knew to do to help Thomas. And, I walk away from this tragedy with the SINCERE HOPE that the work I do every day—supporting our Foundations Health Opioid Treatment Clinics—will help many people achieve the breakthrough that will SAVE their own lives.
