Thoughts for two special friends

I received news this morning that two special friends both lost their dad's over the weekend. Both father's took their own lives, without explanation and both families grieve now for someone who cannot be returned to them. Each individual situation of suicide is different, but I just wanted to paste some numbers up here for anyone who feels like they've run out of hope for whatever reason. Or if you are someone who has been left behind, these numbers are here for you too.

Lifeline: www.lifeline.org.za
Durban:
Crisis: (031) 312 2323
Office: (031) 303 1344
East London:Crisis: (043) 722 2000
Johannesburg:Crisis: (011) 728-1347, Office: (011) 728-1331
Cape Town: Crisis: (021) 461-1111, Office: (021) 461-1113

I hope that if any of you who read this know of any other numbers, you post them here so that someone might catch a glimpse, on a day when they need to.
