What People Are Saying

I just finished “Mayday” and would like to share what an inspirational story it was! It is so important that we talk about mental illness in our everyday conversation. We shouldn’t be afraid or ashamed of asking for or needing help. Proud of you Angie Welty for having the strength to write this. Thank you.

“I sat down to read just a few chapters and ended up finishing the book in one sitting." Unputdownable, if that is even a word. This book is going to make a difference”

— Glenda G.

Angie has allowed us into her emotionally, heartbreaking trauma of unrecognized depression and what can subsequently happen. You won't want to put it down until you know how this inspirational story of hope ends. It is a powerful and important learning tool, for all of us, regarding the realities of mental health today. Just be sure to have a box of tissues next to you as you read. You will feel like you are right there with her.

“This is a powerful, tearful account of a mom's journey after her son's suicide attempt.
Honest, heartfelt. Angie digs deep and shares the family's journey through her narrative. I appreciated her perspective. As a mother who has gone through a similar situation, it did bring up some "old ghosts" for me. However, I value her honest share and wish we could have journeyed together. Thank you Angie and Family for sharing your journey. May this book not only bring you comfort, but assist countless families.
