Walt's Story. A Story of Restoration.

  • What’s wrong with me?

  • Why can’t they figure out what I have?

Simple questions but no simple answers.

Thank you so much for wanting to learn more about my story!  I hope this page is an encouragement to you.  When you are finished here, please browse our other website: Restorationhemp.net where you’ll find what I’ve used for restoration.

I HAD TO FACE THE FACT THAT HEALING WASN’T IN THE CARDS

As it turns out, there was to be no umbrella diagnosis that explained everything I was experiencing. And when multiple doctors concluded they didn’t know what more they could do, I had to face the fact that healing wasn’t in the cards.

I wasn’t going to recover; I wasn’t going to be the husband and father I once was; I wasn’t going to tackle another house or yard project; nor was I going to return to full-time work or resume the mentoring and counseling that I so longed to do. Whatever hope I had turned to hopelessness as reality set in.

I’ll be the first to tell you that living without hope can be as destructive as any disease. It’s like a thief that comes in the middle of the night, appearing out of nowhere, with an agenda to steal, kill and destroy.

As a result of feeling hopeless, my mental state was soon as bad as my physical state. I needed a wake-up call and God delivered a big one when my son called me in August 2017. This was a turning point for “Walt’s Story” – my story.

DO NOT GIVE UP YOUR FIGHT
I’ve been told it is always darkest before the dawn and that was certainly true in my life. It is my hope that by reading the rest of my story, you will be encouraged to persevere, to not give up your fight and to guard against the thief that lurks in the shadows of our minds.
