A Crucial Reminder...

This book serves an important function, particularly in the lives of anyone considering suicide. Suicidal individuals often lose sight of or rationalize the effects their death and method thereof will have on those around them. This book serves as an excellant reminder of how much those left behind are affected, and why the effect is never 'for the best' as the suicidal person oftens tells themself. Also a good book for those whose lives have been touched by a suicide in order to start to heal.
