Jimmy:
That is very kind and touching of you to say. it is much appreciated.
I struggled years ago as I was very lonely, had no sense of self worth, was thousands of miles from home and I lived in complete fear of nearly everything. It was an incredibly dark and scary place that I was so ashamed of because I could not explain it to others. The more I tried, the more isolating it became and I trusted people I should not have. I now feel I own those experiences and try to help others feeling the same.
I will never be able to give enough thanks to God and to the people in horse racing who believed in me (although some chose to turn their back) when I had no belief in myself or anyone else.
I have just been asked to return to Turf paradise for their next meet that is scheduled for 106 days but I promise I still go to bed every night and ask myself "How can I call the races better, tomorrow?"
Please let me know should you ever visit Phoenix!
Regards,
Craig.
