Redemption/Fate

from Cully · host Steve Cully

The Master Connector Steve Spiro himself joins the show to recount on my recent health scare and harrowing recovery. I open up about experiencing terrible pain from losing girlfriend Kelly and best friend Josh in succession, back-to-back. My actions and behavior were erractic, sepsis spread in my blood which caused me to be a different person. Kelly, Josh, my family intervened and I refused to listen, turning down help. Losing hope, not caring, giving up, my health deteriorated, and I was found unresponsive. Emergency surgery, amputating my foot saved my life. Was it a life worth saving? Steve talks about being at the bottom in a dark place, focusing on yourself, making changes, getting better before even starting to fix relationships. Feeling sorry for yourself for having a foot amputated or feeling blessed to be alive and receiving a second chance. The most important people in my life, did they care, were they concerned to check on me after 3 surgeries and a month in the hospital? I wasn't worth it and thats a devasting feeling knowing I drove them away being accountable for the way I treated the people Ioved most. Steve guides me through developing a positive outlook, setting small goals, knowing how to repent. I pray I can show I learned from my experience, I pray that I can show I changed and most importantly, I pray I can get a chance to start over with the people I selfishly hurt. A second chance to make amends for a mountain of mistakes.
