I don't get these kind of reactions. I'm simply encouraging someone to make a small donation anyways to a worthwhile cause.
When I was 17, my best friend's brother committed suicide, and I saw first hand the devastating effects it has on the family. His mother never fully recovered from the loss. They all moved on with their lives, but they were never the same. I should mention as well that he was very close in age to his brother and myself, and we did just about everything together. It was as if I had lost a brother as well.
So here's what I just did. I made the donation of $25 to the Canadian association for suicide prevention. If you want to continue trashing me, do it, but only on the condition that you match my donation. In fact, I challenge everyone on CP tonight to match my donation. There are some down times in the economy, and this may be an organization that people depend on right now.
