I think some of that would certainly be outside the scope of the federal government. It was more a situation where, yes, he received treatment, but knowing the severity of what he was suffering with came too late. At a point when you lose hope, when the really great help....
If that great help had come at the beginning, I probably wouldn't be here today. But it was too late in the going, to the point where Dave had lost hope—unbeknownst to me; I'm trying to keep his hope up at all times and he's kind of putting a brave face on it.
There's one thing that I think would help early in the going. For many people who are depressed, medication is a good answer for them, and sometimes it's the only thing they need. For many other people, though, and I think Dave would fall into this category, having effective counselling and dealing with a psychologist or a counsellor for talk therapy is an integral part of the process.
That was the part that came too late for Dave.
