Why I Febfast

My Dad suicided in the year 2000. I was 18 years old and about to commence my Year 12 exams. It was a hard and confusing time for me and my family, but I have always held onto the thought and feeling that it was nothing compared to the pain and confusion that my dad must have been feeling to take his own life. Maybe if he had reached out to a service like Lifeline, he would still be here today.

My Dad suicided in the year 2000. I was 18 years old and about to commence my Year 12 exams. It was a hard and confusing time for me and my family, but I have always held onto the thought and feeling that it was nothing compared to the pain and confusion  that my Dad must have been feeling to take his own life. 

Maybe if he had reached out to a service like Lifeline, he would still be here today. 

Help me to raise money for the incredible work that Lifeline does.
