While We're Waiting® - Hope After Child Loss

111 | A Story of Beauty from Ashes (Part One) with Chrisy Slate


Listen Later

Chrisy Slate joins me today to share the story of her remarkable son Caleb, who died by suicide just as he was beginning his senior year of high school with absolutely no signs or indications of what he was about to do.  Chrisy is still in the thick of her grief, but she is beginning to see glimmers of beauty coming from the ashes of her loss.   I hope you'll listen in for a very honest and open discussion of teen suicide and its impacts on a family.
