Read the story at WTVR here. Video below. Greg and Cole spent a lot of time putting this together and I appreciate they put the hotline numbers on the news show. I’m so honored to be one of Greg’s Heroes Among Us for a second time, his award-winning segment. Resource pages here.

I am an emotionally naked TEDx speaker, and author of the Book, Diary of a Broken Mind. I raised two boys, Richard and Charles, and lost my youngest son, Charles to substance use disorder and suicide June 5, 2015. I help people foster a culture of connection to prevent suicide, reduce substance misuse and find life after loss. My motivational, training and workshop topics include suicide prevention, addiction, mental illness, and grief.
As talented and funny as Charles was, letting other people know they matter was his greatest gift. And now the legacy I try and carry forward in my son's memory.

Thank you so much Jamie. Let me know how you have been doing.
We saw this story on the news last night and I held my breath when you were first speaking. So very powerful. I ordered your book.
Thank Andrew. The first chapters are hard but there is comedy. Wait till you get to bloody bunny.
