About

Our family is just an average American family. We love and support each other. We cheer for each other at soccer games or parades. And on Feb 3, 2015, we became a family of suicide survivors. Our daughter Victoria was a smart, beautiful, talented, popular teenage girl who happened to suffer from anxiety. She was in honors classes, on a competitive dance team, a Sunday school pre-school volunteer, and a pageant queen. She had lots of friends and a bright future. But in a moment of panic she made a decision that would forever change all of our lives.

That was 8 years ago. And since that day, we have stood as a family to publicly tell our story, her story, so that others may learn from this horrible, tragic, irreversible mistake. We have participated in walks, raised funds for research, given interviews, and talked to people individually that may need some help either for themselves or someone they love. We will continue to do this as a family.

But what has grown very organically from this outreach has been a need to start conversations to raise awareness and funds for suicide prevention but also to give others the opportunity to tell their tales of struggling with mental illness or learning to be the difference to someone that does.

All proceeds will go to fund this very needed ministry.

 

So I hope you take some time to help us support the fight against suicide and mental illness. And don't forget to tell us your tale as well.....
