My psychic medium/counsellor advised me when dealing with my guilt in a good way. She told me I didn't have the right to make other peoples choices. Therefore Michael and Jim were free to make their own choices and did. We can create awareness and reach out to the living, but we have to respect the choices of those that comitted suicide. Taking the gun away could only stop him from shooting himself not killing himself.

I had a professional peer commit suicide a long time ago. If there had been a list of potential suicides in this town, she would not have been on the list. There were signs but I was too trusting and missed them. I resolved never to do that again. If my alarm bells went off, I would do what I could to conscript the help of others who might be able to help as well, or better. On several occasions I have called doctors, priests or other professionals and alerted them to what I felt was about to happen. Some viewed it with a little suspicion but I did not care. I wanted the people to get help immediately! It was taking a risk but I always felt the risk was well worth it. Keep on your good efforts Christa. They are a living testament to your friend, Jim... Christa…good advice if you have a friend or a loved one thinking of suicide.
