In this episode Andrea Gallagher speaks with Adrina Shields, mother of Robbie Graves, an Air Force veteran who tragically took his own life on Memorial Day of 2017. June is suicide awareness month, and for the next two episodes we’ll be hearing from the mothers of two service members who committed suicide. It is a heavy topic, but as you’ll hear discussed it is one that needs to be talked about more – to remove the shame, the stigma, and to be open about all aspects of this harrowing phenomenon. Andrina discusses her experience, what she’s learned, how she copes, and the steps we all can take to bring an end to this crisis like supporting the work of folks at Camp Hope, TAPS, Project Refit, and Operation Restored Warrior.
