on hope, but when you're in those early hours and days, there's not much anyone can say to you that will give you that hope either.
I could write a book on people saying the wrong thing and the right thing, I think.
You know, we use elephants to wish because of the elephant in the room as much as elephants never forget.
You know, saying something is better than saying nothing, but being careful what you do say.
99% of people do not say the wrong thing to hurt you.
They just don't know what to say.
And I can remember going back to work for the first time and someone saying, wow, you've lost loads of weight.
How have you managed to do that?
And the dog thing is, I lost my dog.
It's really hard, isn't it?
These type of things, they don't mean any harm.
It's just they're very nervous.
And the more they think about it, they say the wrong thing.
But when it comes to suicide, there's nothing wrong in saying died by suicide.
Committed suicide is something that needs to be stopped by, you know, we must stop saying that.
And that is something I think a lot of people have stopped saying.
I still hear it far too much by people who really should know better.
Working in, you know, some people who even work in mental health have heard people saying it and it's got to stop because that does send the wrong message across.
But died by suicide, taken their own life is the terminology I would use and wouldn't offend me in any way.
So it's a bit predictable, number one, but it's got to be my mum and dad.
