Max's Road to Recovery
Donation protected
Hi,
I'm Max Beauboeuf's dad. For the past 3 years, Max has been struggling with the crippling affects of a nasty disease called Bi-polar Mental Illness. This disease has robbed Max of his confidence, self-esteem, and independence. It has kept him from continuing his college education, sucked him into substance abuse, crushed his hopes for a productive life, and has him thinking about death by suicide..a lot.
For those of you who know Max, you know what a sweet, compasionate, and great young man he is. He is a fiercely loyal friend. He deeply loves God and us, but he is really hurting right now.
My wife and I did all the things you should do when your kid suffers from an illness like this, but typical health care options for problems like this just don't measure up, and simply don't work.
So we decided to take a leap of faith, and admit Max into a mental illness and substance abuse treatment facility called Pasadena Villa Psychiatric Residential Treatment Center in Tennessee. This treatment is not covered under our health care program, so we have to pay out-of-pocket. The cost is $25,000 per month, and we're being told that Max would probably need at least 3 months of therapy (maybe more).
With all the research we've done, we know that this is the right place for Max to be right now. We just need some help to make it work.
So this is an invitation for you to participate in Max Beauboeuf's road to recovery. Thanks...
