My Story…
On June 7, 2020 my world changed forever when I lost my partner David to suicide. David was an incredible human being, who was loved by everyone who knew him. He was kind, compassionate, hilarious and sensitive. He suffered silently with depression. In honour of his life, I have dedicated myself to advocacy around mental health, stigma, and suicide prevention.
On Sunday, September 26th, 2021 I will be running in CSPYYC's Run for Life to remember David and so many others who have been lost to suicide. I am recruiting people to run alongside me, one kilometer at a time. This run is not about speed or distance; it is about creation of community, and sparking conversations that need to be started. It is about remembrance and hope.
Please consider a donation to the Center For Suicide Prevention, a local organization which provides information, education and facilitation of workshops teaching practical skills to help people who are struggling with thoughts of suicide.
