Riding the Wave ... an I'm Glad You Stayed Project Podcast
Dylan's Story
*Trigger Warning* This episode talks about suicide and self harm.
The I'm Glad You Stayed Project was started in honor of Dylan Salge in 2021. In this episode, Dylan's mom, Micki, talks with Abbey about Dylan's struggles, the night he was found, his organ donations, her experience with grief, and feelings about the I'm Glad You Stayed Project. She shares very intimate details about her family's personal journey after Dylan's suicide, over three years ago. We are grateful for Micki's honestly and graciousness in sharing Dylan's story.
If you or someone you love is struggling with mental health issues or suicidal thoughts, call or text 988. We see you trying and we are so glad you stayed.
