À propos de l?auteur

I wrote my autobiography for three reasons. First, I hope that the story of my recovery from suicidal depression will give others hope. Second, I want to explain my Foundation and its mission of helping with depression. Third, I want to tell about my life, and explain the signs of depression and how people can help others. Presently, Ruth and I live a peaceful life, three-hundred feet behind the Veterinary hospital that I created. Everyday I drive those eight miles to the farm where animals help people.
