Please say a prayer for mental healing for my stepson Rob.
Ya'll may remember about a year and a half ago when my stepson Rob was in a house fire and nearly died.

He recovered from that, moved to another state, met a girl, and had just started a new job as an armed security guard with Securitas.
Today he got into an argument with his girl and she left. He wrote a suicide note and took all the pain killers he just renewed the prescription on. Just for good measure he took a bottle of lithium and a bunch of Tylenol. When his cousin hadn't heard from him they asked for a wellness check. The police left when nobody answered the door. The cousin, who is also a Veteran, decides to check on him. Found him in bed unresponsive and called 911.
He hadn't been right since serving in the Infantry in Iraq. He was an artistic guy who painted and played guitar. I think the killing and seeing a couple of battle buddies die affected him. He's been up and down since getting back. He's 33 years old.
His cousin put us in touch with a group called "One of 22". They have been at the hospital with him and will help get him the help he needs. They are able to relate being combat Vets themselves.
Thanks FABO.
