So sorry to hear about the loss of your lovely son. My brother has schizophrenia. I think this charity does some good research as do this year's Nobel prize winners. There may be hope on the horizon if they keep at it. Kirstie

From your grief, I know you are helping so many people, Jacqui. Having had people very close to me suffering with serious mental illness and attempts at suicide, I can only imagine the impact this has had. I know Will is looking down and extremely proud of his lovely mum x
