Found Missing Child *Suicide Information*

Missing -   *Highly Suicidal*ch



This original post was about my daughters friend who was missing. She has been found alive, and is being taken for the necessary medical treatment. In times of a missing child it takes friends, family, and your community to come together to support the family and spread the word. Facebook was an amazing source to use.


If you or someone you know is depressed and contemplating or even thinking of suicide do not wait, ask them directly. Seek help or look for the numerous face to face, phone, and online help available right now. Listed below are well known sources:

What I'm reading...

Last month I downloaded Howie Mandels "Here's the Deal: Don't Touch Me" onto my Kindle. This is the first time reading a biography about a celebrity. I have enjoyed Howie's comedy, so I thought I'd let him enlighten me on how he  deals with OCD and ADHD. The book took me to places in Howie's life that is down right sad.

I am not finished reading his story since it is not my typical YA or Fantasy. Yet, I will finish it to learn how an adult deals with such struggles.

I agree with his hand germ phobias, and I love anti bacterial gels.
