Black,

My heart goes out to you brother. While it is my intent as an artist to evoke emotions in people through my work, it still saddens me to know that it has caused your own personal pains to amplify.

My mother took her own life in 2004, and for about 2 years after that, any movie or book dealing with suicides or the loss of a parent, really hit me hard. I couldn't even watch the movies that she used to like, because it brought out so many memories and so much pain.

I cannot possibly imagine the emotional pain of losing a child. As a father myself, even the mere thought of it is unbearable.

You have my support friend. If you ever need to talk, do not hesitate to reach out.
