I mentioned this during my presentation. Unfortunately, after I formed a support group of women in situations similar to mine, I found out that the social worker assigned to our case through the program had been taken off the case because her spouse was in the armed forces. I got a call after my husband's suicide attempt because I called looking for help.
I also called his chain of command to let them know. My husband had been suffering from PTSD for a number of years. At that point, he hadn't been in to work for three or four years, so no one really had any contact with him. He was going on with his life at home, isolated. I called the helpline to tell them about his suicide attempt and I got a call back. When you are going through an ordeal like that, a telephone call is not appropriate and it does not address your needs.
