About this episode

In 2005, Ashley's mother attempted suicide. She was hospitalized, and eventually passed away. In the days after her mother's death, Ashley struggled with guilt. She had been the one to request a "Do Not Resuscitate" order. Even though her mother had requested a DNR in the past, Ashley wondered if she'd made the right choice. Then a nurse made a phone call that changed Ashley's life. 

If you’re struggling with mental health challenges, there are people who can help. If you're located in the U.S., you can call or text the Suicide and Crisis lifeline 24/7 at 9-8-8, or find them online at 988lifeline.org.
