THE "WHY DID SHE CHOOSE SUICIDE?" PRESS RELEASE Contact: Christy Whitman @ (610) 883-7345 Christy Whitman Christy Whitman shares her story and her approach to healing when her sister chose to commit suicide in Why Did She Choose Suicide? A Spiritual Approach to Healing When Someone You Love has Tragically Passed (GMA Publishing). In ten simple, straight forward chapters (focusing on the five stages of loss, forgiveness and the healthy questions to ask), Christy has created a very unique book on how to heal when someone takes their own life. When Christy heard the news that her sister, Terri, ended her life, she was very grateful that she had a spiritual connection that would get her through this horrific loss. Most of the people that Terrie had left behind did not have the strength to move through the pain. The emotions and questions that arise after a suicide can destroy the people left behind leaving them feeling suffering, unhappiness, and apathetic in their own lives. Because Christy was determined and she gave herself permission to heal from her great loss, she moved through the pain and has allowed herself to create joy and happiness in her own life. Taking an Active Role in the Healing Process:

"The loss you have experienced should not be minimized for it is extremely painful. This can be one of your greatest spiritual lessons. There is tremendous growth in the healing opportunity ahead of you. It will not be easy, but it will be worth the experience of your whole life.
