I don’t know what was going through his head. But I’d imagine that he just couldn’t, he couldn’t do it anymore. He died about a week before his 28th birthday. If he’d have had professional help things could’ve been a lot different. I think there is help out there, but it’s very hard to access.” https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fc4d03b8139af03765e27fb/5b1c6e5b-822f-43e5-a211-e5de5291616b/IMG_4304.jpg Work - Testimonies on Mental Health Margaret and John, practicing Tai Chi outside the Senior Centre in Castlemilk.
