Today marks 25 years since we lost Kurt Cobain. It has also been about a week since my friend Ryan decided to take his life.
I am going to spend the noon hour today to celebrate these lives and countless others so tragically lost and the friends and family that remain to pick up the pieces.
Please mark your calendar and join me in the Our Of The Darkness Walk at Montrose Harbor on September 17th.
Why I walk…
Each year, suicide claims more lives than war, murder, and natural disasters combined. Yet suicide prevention doesn’t receive anywhere near the funding as other leading causes of death. It’s up to Walkers like us to make a difference. Together we can change the conversation about mental health and put a stop to this tragic loss of life.
Join Team 101WKQX HERE and if you cannot participate in the walk, please consider making a 100% tax deductible donation HERE to benefit the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention (AFSP) funding research, education, advocacy, and support for those affected by suicide.
If you or someone you know is having suicidal thoughts PLEASE talk to someone.
Talk to ANYONE.
