I'm passionate about...
I am a 53 year old single dad of a 16 year old girl in the end game stage of Emphemazema and COPD, if I am part of the 50 % I can live another 5 years, at this stage even the comon cold can take my life! As young as I am there is so much I can not do and so much I will never be able to do, but what I can do I will enjoy to the fullest with what ever I have left! My last battle for breath lasted for 4 hours and I almost lost, in the end one piece of the life support equipment saved my life when I no longer had the strength to fight for even one more breath. My doctor says it won't always work. My 16 year old daughter lost her mom 2 years ago to cancer now she is getting ready to lose her dad. I thought I was just hurting myself only to find out I am hurting every one that knows me for I am a kind and gentle soul. This is not just about you this is about every body that loves you!!! One of the things I have chosen to do even though I do so at great risk because a common cold can take my life! Is to visit the schools to talk to the kids with tears in my eyes and I take them on a journey through my life and the bad choices I made and where they have led me now. I hide nothing and plead from my heart for them to please consider the cost! I know God has made a way for me to reach them because I see the tears in their eyes and their letters to me touch my soul like healing rain drops washing and purifying me befor God. I can not change it for me BUT I can change it for MANY, GOD help me to do so in a living, real and powerful way.

Quit befor the symtoms show up, I did not quit even after they showed up now my time is running out. I know I am to young to die because I don't know what I am going to be when I grow up. It is a life and death choice and I did not look at it that way when I still had time, now I am running out of time. And the only choice I have now is how to spend the little time I have left. The hard part is knowing the pain I am leaving behind me with my daughter and family and all the wonderful friends I am leaving.
My story with God
On the day I was to take my own life Jesus stood in my path and took my life for me and I was reborn in a new and living way.
Other stuff about me:
I know there are alot of christians that smoke and that does not make them bad it just makes them die early. But you have to desire the freedom and God will grant it unto you for no good thing will he with hold from you!
