November third is coming up! How can it be almost two years since that dreadful, life destroying morning when Andrew breached Bobst’s non-existent security, and leapt to his death from the tenth floor of that wretched library? That cold, eery, spooky, hungry library! “If there were no witnesses, how do you know that my son [...]

What with the extra 9/11-related-security slowing down getting into Manhattan, and the gentle, oh so gentle, sprinkle from the sky while setting up – the sound check was complete and the tables and chairs decked and ready… well, a little later than planned. But we were ready, willing and eager to Get The Wellness going. [...]

I remember reading somewhere, that someone went to see the movie Titanic eighty times, in the hope perhaps, that the next time around the story would have had a happy ending. I know that feeling. I know it. I know it. I regularly “watch” Andrew’s last days hoping that something/someone had intervened and he wouldn’t [...]

My birthday was… a bit of this and a bit of that really. Not too rotten, not brilliant either, but it ended better than it started. And that is ALWAYS a good thing. The real present however, came yesterday. Why not on my actual birthday you may ask? I asked myself that question too. And [...]

On November 3rd. 2009, my then 20 year-old son, Andrew Williamson-Noble, an East Asian Studies junior at NYU’s College of Arts & Science, jumped to his death from the 10th floor of NYU’s Bobst library. Since that day, I have received messages and emails from students, mainly from NYU, offering support whilst revealing their own [...]

I am still thinking about what happened at Bobst last week. For those of you who might not know, Bobst is NYU (New York University) main library in Washington Square Park, Manhattan. I am… I don’t even know what polite word to use… yes … I got it; I am appalled, ie:mad as hell, that [...]

It has been confirmed that the attempted suicide did happen as described in the message left me by an NYU student. I am trying to ascertain if is true or not, but as per the following comment left on the blog early this morning, It seems that there was an attempted suicide from the 10th [...]

I saw a therapist yesterday. She was highly recommended and those who recommended her were right, I liked her. Quite frankly I’ve never seen the point of a therapist. Even now I am not entirely sure how it works, although… you know… there’s something to be said about being able to… talk. Why are you [...]

“Come and read this,” my husband called out to me from his desk on Saturday morning. “What is it?” “Come and see,” he insisted. I walked over to him and he pointed to the computer screen, Mark Madoff, the headline read, had died of suicide that morning. I felt sick, sick, sick. I don’t want [...]
