A great young, healthy, inspirational young man whose life was cut too short. So unfair and to be fair I hope the person who hit him gets caught and spends many years in prison. I was hit by a car in France at the age of nine. It was a.so a hit and run and I landed head first breaking the windshield of a car that was coming in the opposite direction. 5 days in coma, all injuries in my head, two months hospitalized. As a miracle I recovered physically but mentally I was never guided by therapy or any guidance and suffered from chronic depression for 20 years not even knowing it. I just thought I was crazy… I am in a better place now and my life purpose is to save animals working in the Er department of an animal hospital and my own cat I rescued 13 years ago. I want a better world too and I try every days to inspire people and I always say, live for the moment now because tomorrow is uncertain…. My heart is with his father now, may he finds solace in his son’s memories….
