Storm Preparation: Some Thoughts on What We Can Do

By Bill McLeod, Esq.

I didn?t sleep well last night. I tuned into the 11 o?clock news and learned about a Taunton homeowner in foreclosure who committed suicide on the day her home was scheduled to be auctioned. Since Wednesday is Storm Preparation day, the news story prompted me to get down to the nitty-gritty of things: reaching out.

I believe that one of the reasons why this situation with the Taunton homeowner strikes me so hard is because in the last several months, I have met several people who have waited a long time to reach out for help. For some, they waited too long and I have been able to help them. For others, I have been able to point them in what I hope was the right direction. And for a few, I have learned that there is nothing I can possibly do.
