I was traveling the country and doing what i wanted. One day i fell off a back of a truck and broke my ankle,couldn't travel and was in a small town in New Hampshire and nowhere to go. here i was a drunk and dope head the hospital i went to told me of a hostel that would let me stay there until i could have surgery to put in pins. I went and had time to reflect on my life.After surgery i came home to Akron Ohio and was homeless,I just said God help me I've hit bottom. He answered my prayers I went to a homeless shelter,they had a residential program for christian living well I asked to go into the program.they helped me to understand life and find a way to live a better life. Part of the program was to help feed and make beds of the homeless.I stayed there for over five months and it was GREAT.I now try try to do something good for someone each day.I have been off drugs and booze since Sept 13,2003 and God willing it will be for the rest of my life.
