This is a conversation is with Parker. We talk about losing his 21 year old brother to suicide at the age of 19 when he was just starting college, just starting his 'adult' life - a life he expected would always include his brother. I talk candidly to Parker who MY youngest child about (my other son)  Alex's death by suicide in 2016 and how it has changed him,  and also our family. He offers the unique perspective of a sibling and speaks to how his generations views and reacts to suicide.
