Lily Sanders dives deep with author and suicide prevention advocate, Anne Marie Romer and her sister Kathleen Crippen on adult suicide and how to heal and understand it. Although blindsided from their sibling's suicide, it is grace that gave them peace so they can heal.

Altogether, they are the epitome of resilience, and love. Listen to the story of how two of their adult brothers committed suicide and how they differed. Blindsided by the loss of their second brother, tragedy kept showing up anyway. And so, Kathleen earnestly requests out loud, "Just Give me The Road". With that, her words became the title of Anne Marie Romer's powerful book which is a love letter to her sister.
