And I don't constantly dream about him anymore. I tell you, haunted doesn't even begin to describe what that did to some of us. Lora and I still have difficulty talking about it. I cried buckets of tears writing that entry about him and it had been 16 years. Suicide really effs people up.

And honestly I'm not sure I am smart enough to give him good advice. Well maybe to jump into PCs earlier. :-) I’m not sure my 18 year old saelf was brave enough for the advise I would give him today.

Very interesting concept for a blog. I may steal, I mean borrow it some day. Sounds like you've come a long way, woman! How much fun we could have if we could be 18 and know what we know now.
