I am so touched by everyone coming out to our fundraiser event to raise money for our team Walkers with the Dawn.

It is hard to believe that two years ago Dawn was helping Chip plan my surprise 40th birthday party.  She had so much fun at the party!  And then a little over a month later, she left.

Since Dawn there have been 4 other suicides.  I don't blame her for that, but I wonder if people felt that if someone so beautiful, warm, friendly and seemingly happy thought this was the best way out ... well, you know what I mean.

I have considered putting together a book.  There have been so many letters left behind by people that have taken their lives.  What if we made a book with letters to those people that left us?  I might do this - I want to think about it more, but I might...

I think of her a lot.  Especially since I am involved in suicide prevention now.  But I know that I have already spoken to one woman who went through (and still battles with) deep depression, and she is going to join our team and walk with us :)  So maybe we can help one person, maybe two - maybe more.

I know Dawn would love that.

I miss her
