Saving More Than A Life is a true understatement. With your help, and even more-so your faith in me, this could into something that can save many, many more. I've been very upfront with my struggles in dealing with a severe case of Bi-Polar. My life, once very promising, has plummeted to a point that I hope no human being ever has to endure. This announcement by Fox Sports, has given me one last gleam of hope. Those that know me, understand that Sports Radio is my wheelhouse, but that bringing awareness to Mental Illness in hopes of educating has always been my priority. This is my shot to combine the two. When I was made aware of this partnership, I was flooded with emotions. Extreme Happiness, but also extreme sadness that I've had to wait until 2016 to witness something this huge. I'm asking a favor. I need to prove to Fox and NAMI that I can be an industry leader of advocating this initiative. Your signature can help prove that I have the will, skill, talent, but most of all, courage to speak honestly and openly about Mental Illness because I suffer from it as well.

I am hanging on with material thinner than thread. The power of your signature, and that of others, can truly, truly save what little hope I have left. This is my health and happiness. I am praying that the good in you can take the 3 seconds to help me. And, if it's not me you care about, I'm sure that you know someone who suffers through a Mental Illness. Do it for them so they can have a voice to rally around.

Personally, I no longer want to feel like I'm the example of how bad life can be when it snowballs in the wrong direction.

With your help, I can become the example of what happens when you have the right support and gameplan in place to become something great. No matter how tough the circumstances. Thank you so much everyone!!

Here is the Press Release. The NAMI partnership sparked this.

Updates

January 20, 2016

Fox and NAMI are still ignoring the reality of what people are actually going through. I am working behind the scenes to force them to acknowledge that mental illness needs a real platform instead of empty lip service.
