For our law enforcement personnel and first responders suicides go on day after day. The pain is too great and we are a step too late. My heart breaks for the one who recently took his life - when he cries out for help, but nobody is listening. One minute here, the next gone, because no one heard his cry.
So many of us are working toward stopping suicide while others look at victims as being weak and the issue of suicide either too difficult to talk about or something impossible to stop. Every one of us needs to CHANGE our attitudes and guide those who are hurting to those who can HELP them, and in the process save their jobs.
