May is Mental Health Awareness Month. I appreciate that TWLOHA has put some mental health templates on PicCollage. When I saw this frame, I wanted to find a photo of Rader to go in it, so here he is on his 15th birthday — his last one with us.
Maybe you think that’s incongruous with the “Hope is Defiant” declaration. I don’t, because *my* hope is that what I’ve learned from my loss helps save others.
If my work ever inspires you or connects with you, please share my posts. One thing I learned with Rader is that you might not be able to tell when someone has lost their last hope. What you share could be the lifeline they need.
