[HumanSer] Suicide counselling books

[Terry Suarez]

Congratulations, please focus on what you need to stay grounded for
yourself. As being a professional healthcare provider for more than 30
years and lost her sight just 7 years ago I realized I was so focused on
taking care of others. That's somewhere along the way. I lost my focus on
taking care of myself. That is the dangerous part of our profession of
taking care of others and sometimes forgetting to take care of ourselves in
the process.. excited for you, and it would be an honor to be part of your
support team.. welcome to reach out to me privately, if he would like.

Terry
