If you believe in miracles…and the power of never-ending HOPE…In 1971 I joined the US military full of preparation and expectation for a career as a cop. Within a few short months there was a dramatic change in my life…I began to suffer from mental illness. For thirty-six years I struggled to survive as the mental illness became more and more severe. Then in 2007, I miraculously recovered. My illnesses were gone but so was my family and my career. Join me as I discover the true nature of the ‘beast’ that eclipsed my life for decades and affected four generations of my family. I also discover the strength of an unshakable spirit, the depths of grief, and the importance of forgiveness. What happened to me happens to thousands of people every year. It may even be happening right now to you or someone you love. You may just find yourself asking, How could anyone have let this happen to another human being?
