Questions & Answers

The toughest thing I have had to deal with was the loss of my twins in 2005. They were born premature due to complications. I had to cut my work with the Atlanta Falcons short to rush home to see them be born and last thirty minutes or so.

I went numb but had to continue to perform at a high level on the field. I learned how to function while not fully functioning at all.

I got to a point where I understood this was apart of purpose. For me therapy is teaching from my very own testimony.

I try to stay locked in with teammates as we are all going through alot of the same things.

I just want people to know they aren’t alone. Others have been through it and you can make it.

When I tell my full story people are in shock for the most part but they get it because they can relate to it.
