So very true. None of us are perfect. He was a great entertainer and many many kudos for visiting the troops over the years. Sometimes the signs of depression are very subtle. Other times they are crystal clear. If you have never suffered from depression, you likely wont understand. There are likely many contributing factors and telling someone to just get over it or just be happy isnt the answer. Be there for them. Encourage them to talk. Whatever is bothering them may or may not be right or make sense to you. Dont tell them what to do. Just listen, stay close by and try to help them talk to a professional. Unfortunately, depression is often seen as a sign of weakness and the person suffering doesnt want to be embarrassed. It can be related to a medical situation, an injury or other life issues. Be kind. Show compassion. RIP Robin. Thank you for the laughs. Laughter is truly the best medicine.
