We were informed today that another young, ex client had also died. I was dreading reading the local paper but today I checked online. I am relieved to say that the story so far has been reported sensitively and without the prejudice of the previous news story. She has been named, then her age and later on in the article they say she was a mother of 3 and further on that she suffered with a mental illness. I can't say how relieved I was to find that her life wasn't reduced down to her diagnosis like in the previous story. I not only makes me angry and sad but I also feel that the press have missed the point. The illness was not the most important fact about these people. RIP Clare and Dean.
