November 11th Speech

Hello Everyone,

I again apologize for the very late post about this awesome speech.

This speech was given at the Courthouse Commons Cafe in Carlisle, PA. My amazing Aunt Deb and Uncle Curtis came to support me in this amazing cause, which was great. They were not the only familiar faces in the crowd though, my friend Govan from the Pennsylvania Suicide Prevention Coalition as also there. I walked up to the stage with shaky hands and before I began to speak I closed my eyes and thought of who I truly wanted to be in that crowd, my Mom. With this I opened my eyes to reality and spoke with passion about my Mother, and how I am now a motherless daughter. After this I pointed out different risk factors about suicide, and shared different preventative measures that can be taken when a loved one is suicidial.
The speech was great, and I thank Courthouse Commons and Ric LeBlanc for allowing me to spread the work about suicide prevention. Thanks as always to all who are making this possible, together we are saving lives!
