Remembering Andrew Koenig

[macdoogle]

OK, folks, so as many of you are aware, this year marks 3 years since Andrew Koenig (born on August 17, 1968 in Los Angeles, California, USA; died February 25, 2010 in Vancouver, Canada) took his own life at age 41.

On February 25, 2010, his father, Walter, and his mother, Judy Leavitt, made a sad announcement, 3 days after Andrew was reported missing after last being seen alive on February 14, 2010, with Walter speaking on their behalf, made a tearful announcement NO parent should EVER forget: My Son took his Own Life.

I personally can understand WHY Andrew made such a Drastic decision, because I myself am a Suicide Attempt Survivor who on June 18, 2004, at age 19, Attempted Suicide by Hanging my right foot onto Telephone Wires; I escaped uninjured, thank God, but broke the wires apart by accident.

You see, folks, I have two words in response to the saying Sticks and Stones May Break My Bones but Words Will Never Hurt Me: Bull ****!
