I'm an Advocate

Hi all, I have posted this before, but I don't think I can overdo it. The national suicide hotline is 1 800 SUICIDE. They do indeed have trained counselors on the phone. If anyone thinks s/he is too far over the edge, please call. Each state also has its hotlines for almost everything you can think of, and some you can't. These should be on the first or second page of your phone book.

Hi Patty. I'm not trying to step on your toes, but I do not see the phone number in your post; only the URL. If there is a phone number in your post, please excuse me. But thinking we've done something and realizing we haven't is too well known w/ our hectic lives.

Best,

Sylvia

'I didn't have time to write a short [post].' Mark Twain wrote that one for me. LOL
'Wisdom is knowing when you can't be wise.'
'Life is what's happening while we are busy making other plans.'

NOTE: I can't imagine anyone is surprised that distracted driving has overtaken drunk driving as the number one cause of death on the road. Please, y'all, keep your eyes sharp when you drive. The guy in the next car could be on a computer in the dash board (whoever dreamed that up should have to watch autopsies), while the one behind you is texting. It's important to be aware of those around you. The kid who ended my second to last life was in a huge SUV and on the telephone.
