About this ebook

K. C. Camden professes that her family was just like any other in the fact that over the years, they were hardly perfect. But together they weathered the storms, laughed and cried, and loved and fought. Everything changed for the Camden family one November day when K. C. drove up to her house and made a horrifying discovery: her son, Joey, had committed suicide.

K. C. details her journey as an average mother who provides a loving and nurturing home for her two children but eventually must face and fight the daunting issues of domestic violence, drug abuse, and depression. While sharing her own misgivings and insecurities, she honestly portrays the path of severe depression that led Joey to take his own life, including her personal regret in not knowing more about the side effects of the controversial anti-depressant drug Paxil and in trusting the doctor who prescribed it for Joey.

Only Forgotten Son offers understanding and compassion for those who suffer the terrible darkness of depression and will hopefully lessen the unwarranted stigma associated with suicide.
