SUICIDE: Let light shine on the issue

Thanks to Sholeh Patrick and the Coeur d’Alene Press for having the courage to bring the growing epidemic of suicide into the spotlight. It is time to remove the stigma of depression (I believe it’s the root of many of the suicides) so we can open the door to positive discussions about how we can set a different course in the growing number of lives affected by this insidious disease.
