(10,039 posts)1. The correct response is calling 911 too.

I would rather avoid my husband calling 911 because his father had no one to call. Or calling 911 myself...if everything had not happened in a parking lot.
That is what we are hoping for.
Thank you for your consideration,

Talking to someone who listens can make a difference. The Suicide Prevention Lifeline provides a valuable service. I agree, this is an excellent campaign.

(68,918 posts)6. I am really impressed with their work.
One of our nieces has also started her own group, "Together We Save". MrG would be really proud of her.
