To Robin:

Robin: You were the "Bob Hope" of a generation or two. Wherever you are, make them laugh, too. We will miss you so much.

I faced the same demons, Robin, a scant fifteen years ago, but I had a friend who recognized those demons and helped me with it. That friend convinced me to go find treatment for the depression that nearly ended my life. It was the best thing that ever happened to me. Thank you, Maureen, for saving my life.

I only wish you had a Maureen, too, Robin.

A tribute to one of the greats and we should all be mindful of other
people going through this.

Clinical depression runs in Ed's family -- all his male cousins have it. They told him to take meds and for years he ignored them. Now he is on a med and it has helped him a great deal. May I say I am helped too?

"Trouble" is merely a trigger. The malady is caused by chemistry. Mine was and still is "Serotonin uptake." Most people are so misinformed about MDD and think it is al due to personal problems.

Well said. And glad you got the help you needed.
It is amazing to me that some of the most talented awesome people in the world are also the most troubled.
