Dennis and his Grandmother, Dr. Lilakos, are here to talk with us about bullying experiences that lead to extreme despair and eventually a suicide attempt. We hope others who are experiencing bullying may learn more about how to get the help and support they need. And, we hope those in positions to help will have a better understanding of how they too can make a big difference where they otherwise may feel powerless or even dismissive of what is happening.
