I just sat on my front porch and read Donna's chapter while enjoying the afternoon sun. The enjoyment of the sun soon turned into empathy as I learned the story of Donna and the great loss of her husband to suicide. I won't share the details here as it needs to be read in its entirety.
Donna's courage and resilience is to be commended. I cannot imagine what she went through that day. The chapter is raw and candid. It certainly fits the title of the book.
Thank you Donna for opening your heart and sharing your pain with us. Your story will be helpful for many people who have lost someone to suicide.
