I was being a lazy slug yesterday afternoon I didn’t shoot for my site after all so I am going to today but as I was “slugging” on the couch watching HBO an advertisement for a show premiering tonight began to play and then tears began running down my cheeks. It is a show about a suicide hotline for veterans. To my surprise I found out that an average of 22 veterans are committing suicide every day, almost one an hour! This is horrible. I found an article written about the show here:
Crisis Hotline, Veterans press 1
I just think it is so sad and tragic that we don’t have more support and help for these vets and their families. I’m taking this Veteran’s Day holiday to find out more about this and to find out what I can do to help.
