Overview

When someone you love dies by suicide, grief can feel overwhelming, isolating and unlike any other kind of loss.
Mark Worthing shares the deeply personal story of losing his son to suicide and what he has learned about living with grief in the years since. He speaks candidly about the pain that remains, the importance of having people who are willing to listen, and why healing does not necessarily mean “getting over” what happened.
