A year ago today, my neighbours lost their 17 year old son, Cameron Wilder - my kids childhood friend, to suicide...a tragedy rooted in depression/mental disease that can been prevented through awareness, intervention, and proper treatment. Via their #LiveWilder Foundation, the Wilders hope to help save lives...understand the signs and symptoms of depression so that others feel compelled to take action before its too late. Today also marks the beginning of Suicide Prevention Wk. In the article below, Stuart Wilder shares a documented story about a man who left a suicide note before heading to the Golden Gate Bridge. It read, if someone smiles at me on my way, my plan will be thwarted. He died. In honour of Cams memory...please challenge yourself to be a better listener and try to make someone smile every day.
