About the Author:
TerryWise.com
Widowed at 35 following her husband's death from Lou Gehrig's Disease, and after surviving a near-fatal suicide attempt, Terry Wise spent the next several years in therapy. A former Boston trial attorney, Terry has now devoted her life to international public speaking and full-time writing (TerryWise.com). She has traveled to all 50 states and hundreds of cities to appear as a keynote speaker and continuing education instructor, speaking to the general public and professionals on topics related to depression, grief, caregiving, suicide prevention, and the process of recovery. Terry is the recipient of a National Mental Health Award for "distinguished work that has had a major impact on the depression community." She makes frequent media appearances and is the featured spokesperson on a National Award-Winning educational video sponsored by NSPL and the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Substance Abuse & Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA). She is also the featured interview on two of WebMD.com's "Depression Insights" Video Series. Terry's writing has been published in the Psychiatric and Rehabilitation Journal. She has served on the boards of numerous organizations, including the American Association of Suicidology, Families for Depression Awareness, and the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline, 800-273-TALK (8255). Terry is happily remarried and is delighted to report that she has finally found the "missing peace." She recently completed her first novel. Terry enjoys fly-fishing, hiking, amassing gadgets, and dispelling the myth that you can't have your cake and eat it, too.
