Hi, my name is Xavier and I am writting this for his mother. Max was my bestfriend. There's nothing in the world that could give me the joy I felt when I was with him. He was my favorite person. I would've done anything in the world to stop him from shooting himself. He was such a sweet person and a goody 2 shoes. He never did drugs, never drank alcohol, hated parties and prefered to be with a small group of friends or by himself. He helped me out of my family problems, let me sleep at his house countless of times, helped me with school and even relationship issues. He needed help that I unfortunately couldn't provide. On November 6th 2021, Max went missing 30 minutes after giving me a suicide letter. He was missing until December 3rd 2021 and was found dead with a self inflicted gunshot to the head. Please contact a suicidal hotline if you need someone to talk to or reach out to a loved one. You are not alone. Max was only 14 and he will forever be.
