His aim is to give others hope and inspiration."Ever since I retired, one thing has stood between me and being the man I want to be. My mind."In the end it saw me locked up against my will and pumped full of so many drugs I didn't have the strength to stand. When I am in the grip of my bipolar disorder and the drugs are pickling my brain I am unable to stand for days. But I will always get back up. It is the only way I know." |
