What prayers were important to you, why? What slogans helped, why? This year I moved a little closer to acceptance After Andrew&amp;rsquo;s suicide I talked with Russ long and hard about why&amp;hellip; Why Andrew,&amp;nbsp; Why me,&amp;nbsp; why this why that Russ encouraged me to keep asking my higher power about these things Russ told me that some day, maybe the need for an answer may not seem so important. What I have found is that by accepting what has happened and try to help others with our experience has brought new meaning to my recovery program. So my question in prayer has moved from why to how&amp;hellip;. my prayer has moved from why God to How can I make meaning what can i do to honour Andrew&amp;rsquo;s memory? He only posed the possibility that me need for an answer might fade. This has made a tremendous difference in my outlook.
