Help Michael in the Fight Against PTSD
Donation protected
Hello community, family and friends. Those close to Michael Decker are asking for your help for him.
Many of you know the trauma Michael suffered in 2014 in California. He was beaten by a group of homeless men and was immediately suicidal, disoriented and picked up in San Diego by police where he was held on suicide watch. He was then hospitalized for almost 14 days in UCSD. He suffered physically but the real damage was psychological. Michael was then treated in Georgia in a hospital for 18 days where his condition got worse. He was released into our care with treatment plans for Intensive psychotherapy. Michael was filled with terror and had severe flashbacks of his attack almost daily for five months. Through the help of several therapists, psychologists and a Doctor, as well as support from his good friends and family he moved forward towards a life which he'd always wanted prior to his attack.
He became a very successful Sous Chef and worked in restaurants and Country clubs for many years. Recently he welcomed his first child into this world giving his beautiful daughter the name he had chosen many years ago, Rowan Marie. Marie was my Mama's name.
Michael was diagnosed with post traumatic stress disorder and alcohol addiction in 2014. He did very well after treatment in recovery from the PTSD for a number of years and has lived five years sober. He recently had a mental breakdown in recovery and is currently suffering once again from the effects of the illness that is PTSD/ Depersonalization & Derealization. This time it is coupled with severe Clinical Depression. Michael needs your help, please.
Michael is a wonderful father to his daughter Rowan and loves his family more than anything on this Earth. He needs help to get into a specialized rehabilitation center where he can learn to conquer this illness and pursue his life again. We are hoping to be able to get him into a program that was recommended for him that specializes in post traumatic stress disorder treatment, located in Tennessee.
Michael will be out of work indefinitely to get the help that he so desperately needs. The costs of the program and therapy to follow will be very costly.
As his Mom I am asking for any amount that you can spare to help Michael. I know these are uncertain times but if we all come together perhaps this will be the answer to our prayers. God knows he deserves this help. I am selling my home to fund his recovery for as long as I can but it may not be soon enough.
Thank you for your prayers, love and support.
