I'm swimming for my nephew Jack, for my family and for so many others out there who are struggling.
- This is my first year diving
- in for youth mental health
In March last year my nephew Jack died by suicide. My family has lived a devastation that is far too common. I’m doing this for my family, and for Jack.
Last day - had company!
Gentle day today, nothing to be joined by my brother Michael.Today i felt you close
Sad today but feeling better
