Hi Jess: I appreciate the article you wrote about the impact your brother's suicide affected your life. Grief, is a uniquely human emotion that is experienced differently by each of us. There are always feelings of loss, helplessness, and egret that spiral into depression, that can lead to self-destructive acts. I am glad you came through the gauntlet to a place of reconciliation and understanding. Such experiences are traumatic and can also lead to PTSD that will follow you to the grave. However, I believe t is good to remember those we loved who have passed, because in that instant they live again in our mind's eye and ear, where we can see and hear them. Thanks for sharing this private event. I am honored to have read it. Best regards, Jerry
