Editorial Reviews

The incidence of depression and suicide are usually the 'elephant' in the room for most families. As Kathleen Laplante observed, herself, this was true in her family. Thankfully, for you and me, she was prompted and she responded to do something about this. Facing the torments head on, the author asked the tough questions, researched to find fact, endured misery and rejection but, persevered. She thanked our Lord for this virtue. When we read this book, we will also thank the Lord. Kathleen Laplante has done so much more than unravel her father's tragic suicide. She gives you and me the powerful weapons of faith and hope to engage in our own battles with depression and suicide. This is a page turner. Fast reading. The author writes with an urgency and sense of discovery that will keep the pages turning. You will find a resource you want to reread and share with loved ones so they might also benefit. One of the most important achievements of this work is the exposition of the important function her spiritual journey played in this story. Hope, healing, forgiveness and spiritual nourishment found in the sacraments and friendships wove their strong strands holding together a wounded soul in her powerful search for redemption. Ave Maria --David E. Dowd, author, poet.
Kathleen...I admire your courage to deal with something so painful. Thank you for the work you are doing to help others. You are an instrument of God to help save lives. God bless you. --Maria Albers, homemaker.
