Welcome to my blog. I will be dealing with issues surrounding teen suicides, in particular gay teen suicide, sharing stories, voicing my opinions, gathering and sharing information, and hopefully saving some lives. Teen suicide, regardless of their orientation, is a great tragedy. Please join me in my attempt to make a difference.

The Ugly.... R.I.P. Marjorie Raymond - Age 15
And, sadly, once again, bullying was at the root of Marjorie committing suicide. According to her suicide note, she couldn't handle any more of the bullying, which she'd endured for over 3 years! So, now, instead of her family planning Sweet 16 birthday celebration, instead of looking forward to all of the rites of passage that comes along with turning 16, her family now has to plan a funeral and say goodbye. THIS HAS TO CHANGE!!! The change needs to be decisive. And, the change needs to come NOW! We need to work towards the day where there are no more headlines like this.
