We Need To Do Better

Upsets me so much when people make suicide a joke or something that people should be ashamed of.

 

Whispering around me about Jon Morrell. I am not ashamed of my son I love him.

 

Is that a face of a little boy that wanted people to endure this pain? No.

 

The fact of the matter is it’s a illness. Suicide is no different then cancer or asthma or arthritis . Jon was sick, depressed. Kids were mean to him in his young mind he could not deal anymore and in his last words he thought everyone would be better off without him.

 

Don’t look down on those that have gone this course, look around and help others so maybe others will choose differently.

 

Jon was an amazing young man who was just sick of being bullied and sick of the voices in his head telling him he wasn’t good enough.

 

We as a society need to do more for mental health, depression and bullying. Help be the change.

 

Together we all can make a difference sometimes all it takes is one small act of random kindness , one smile to a stranger. Be the change, be the difference.

 

Forever in my heart baby boy
