Here in the United States, suicide claims the lives of more than ten thousand people every year, but behind this number were individual lives, people with a story. No story is ever the same. The reasons and circumstances why someone chooses suicide areat times left for the grieving survivors and communities to wonder and try to interpet, "Why?" In 1986 I survived a near fatal suicide attempt. I was sixteen and I was never the same after this attempt. All of us have a story to share or tell. Some of us become writers, and write our stories down. Everyone who fought their personal struggle against mental illness and suicide likewise has a story to tell. When an Angel Intervenes is my story, and if you or know someone who might relate to my story, my story is for you. Bill and Laura are set to embark on what was meant to be a pleasant evening out. Bill is attending his twenty year high school reunion and ultimately experiences at times a disorienting trip into the past as he rediscovers a gift he was given on a night he intended to be his last.
