Today, I was looking for an old file from a past work life. I stumbled upon a #LOR that I wrote for my freshman college roommate in 2013.

A few years afterwards, he called me with a great desperation in his voice. I asked that he give me a least an hour to travel there.
He agreed. Upon arrival, I entered a screened porch and saw an old college professor talking to him. On the table was a sawed-off double barreled #shotgun, #beer, & #cigarettes.

He was sweating profusely & murmuring that he had nothing to live for anymore.
His 7 yr. old son was in a back room. We talked for several hours. He finally agreed to travel with me to seek help. After several more hours in the hospital & watching his son, the physician comes and says to me, “We can’t hold him.”

It was a gut-punch! I knew he was not well.
