I will be in Reno at the end of the month. I can pick it up!

Yes, these type of discussions need to be out there no matter how tough it is to talk about.

My 29 year old son got his BA in art, photography. He was a very talented musician also. Unfortunately he took his own life in August. He suffered from depression and it was his divorce that pushed him to the edge. As a mother, this is the worst hell I could have never imagined. The hell my son was living in his mind was worse.

Thank you for sharing your story.

This is heartbreaking, Jennifer. I know you shared this with me recently, but thank you for putting it out here. The more we talk about it the better for everyone. And maybe the nets of our words will catch a few people from falling.

(Also, your copy of Waking Up at Rembrandt's still sits in an envelope on my desk, addressed and sealed and everything. I just haven't figured out how to get it to the post office. My apologies...)

Thank you friend. I’m so glad we’re both here. Right where we belong. As Ram Dass says- we’re all just walking each other home. I really am so happy to know you and call you a friend. Love you lots.
