Lastly, he uncovers the power that drug companies can exert to control the pricing and delivery of pharmaceuticals and concomitantly keep physicians in line.

    This is a story of a man’s struggle with drug and alcohol abuse, suicide attempts, mental ward admissions, DUIs, overdoses, and police arrests starting at the age of sixteen.

It is his only hope that someone reading this will be helped and forever be changed by his story and will come to know Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior. This is his life story from the age of sixteen and how he ended up in Las Vegas for one purpose: to die. But God had other plans for his life. Seven miracles happened to him there, he was truly Killing Himself to Live, and it is a miracle that he is able to write this today.
