Thank you to Kansas City’s Grief Support Network for inviting me to speak today on your panel of authors about my children’s book, “Goodnight Mr. Vincent Van Gogh.” Suicide loss can be a difficult topic to talk about with children, but it doesn’t have to be. Thank you for believing in the message of my book and knowing that it is a helpful resource for grieving families. It’s ok to talk about suicide. #postventionisprevention #abovetherug

After my husband ended his life I was completely devastated and felt as if I was torn into pieces that could never be put back together. How could life go on? The emotional pain he ended was unknowingly passed onto me. I knew I needed help quickly. I joined a support group called SASS (Suicide Awareness Survivor Support) who supports the ones left behind after a loved one's suicide and also helps raise mental health awareness. I will never get over my husband's death, but I now know that I can get through it, thanks to SASS. I sweep nothing under the rug. By starting an open and honest conversation I hope to help break down the stigmas and start raising mental health awareness. Together we can stay above the rug!
