“Who is that man in orange?”
“And why is he hiking across central Texas?”
So begins the the latest article in the Gonzales Inquirer about Tom’s walk from Houston to Austin to raise awareness of the perils of the stigma surrounding mental illness. Check it out.
Dear Tom,
Thank you for your hike and breaking the stigma. I have faith that you will do it!
I love to hike, orange is my favorite color and I suffer from major depression disorder, probably had it my entire life. I have been on meds since 1995, thats a long time. Some days it is really hard to stay alive.
I love what you are doing, keep up the good work. Enjoy your walk and thank you!
