Kathleen D Morse, Bereavement & Trauma Coordinator North Shore Child & Family Guidance Center Send letter to journal: Re: RSQ Availability? kmacsw{at}optonline.net Kathleen D Morse	I work in the Triage Unit of a community mental health agency and I lecture in the community to school professionals to illicit an understanding of and help for Children and Adolescents who are potentially suicidal. A tool such as this could be invaluable for those of us out there each day. When and how can we get a copy to use? Thank you for your work! Kathi Morse

rosemarie dizon, pediatrician Send letter to journal: Re: RSQ forms rose_dizonph{at}yahoo.com rosemarie dizon	Hi. A week ago i had a pediatric patient who hanged himself. Their are also isolated pediatric cases of depression . In the tertiary hospital where I work, their is no adolescent medicine as subspecialty. More often we catch these patients after suicidal attempts, then and only then do we refer these patients to psychiatry department. Your research is new and i hope that i can make it available and apply these questionnaire to early detect and save these suicidal attempts. Thank you.
