Suicide occurs every day.
In one way or another, it has touched us all.
Sometimes, it is done suddenly and unexpectedly.
Sometimes, suddenly and expectedly.
Sometimes, it is done slowly, over time.
No matter the how or the why — it leaves those left behind
with many more questions than answers.
It leaves those left behind with grief.
It leaves those left behind with remorse.
It leaves those left behind with
unimaginable, unending and undeserved guilt.
This story is dedicated to those who could no longer survive,
and to those who remain behind, and have no choice but to do so.
