You can also always call 911. Officers have dealt with this exact scenario hundreds of times and can offer local assistance that 800 numbers often can’t.

In reply to JC. Thanks for sharing your thoughts, JC. These entries are hard to write, but some of them are a little easier because they're less common or don't happen quite as often. This one is difficult because without a doubt there are people reading it who are either contemplating suicide, know someone who is, or have been through this horrible situation. And thanks for the kind words about our books. We're thrilled with how they're doing so far :).

I couldn’t help but think that if someone who was contemplating suicide read this, they might think twice. But then I also know that when a person gets to that point, it’s often a case of I can’t stand one more second and they can’t think beyond that.

I know that sometimes these are hard for you to write, but I have that situation in my story and this entry gave me some excellent things to think about.

Thanks, as always, for your help.

On a brighter note- congratulations on the Rural Thesaurus being “Best Seller” and # 1 in it’s category on Amazon (with Urban right behind at #2!!)
