Since the day he was born he’s been on the back foot. Born into an abusive household and being naturally heavier than other kids. Born with a genetic predisposition to depression. A victim of physical and sexual assault. A lonely child who experienced the death of his brother before his first day of school. A guy who had to hear his mom had cancer before the words “I’m sorry” from his dad. Since he was born, he’s had to fight. Fight to stay alive. Fight to keep the hope. 20 years later, he’s still standing. Just barely. He’s survived, By The Skin Of His Teeth.
