How? What were the early years? <br />The teen years? Young Adult? We the public almost have the right to know these are missing pieces. I need to know. I am twenty-seven and weigh almost 480 pounds and I need to know how you felt and feel. What you went through and go through. I need to learn, not about dieting. I know that stuff. I need to learn from someone who has been there and done that and still lives it and willing to share it.<br />Please Mike heelp me, help others out there.

All of us who suffer from this disorder feel such a connection to you. We have learned from your good times and from your bad times as well. I did not post about depression because I did not even know where to start. I have been literally on my knees to the point where I could not even form words in my mind or my voice to pray. I just WAS. But just as you stared into the camera and said, "If you just don't give up hope, there is light at the end of the tunnel." I am so glad that so many people got to hear that message from you, and I am so glad I got to see you again today. I wish there was a Michael Hebranko show! Then we could all get our fix every day. :)<br />We have to remember that you are a family man and that you are busy with your life. You have helped me and countless others, and you continue to give me hope, comfort and inspiration. I am getting better. My best days are still ahead of me, and I thank God for keeping you alive so that you can help all of us along this path.Kathyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02541686775332464972noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4664614322133943133.post-33224982425940811302009-07-27T12:02:23.080-07:002009-07-27T12:02:23.080-07:00Looking forward to seeing you on Oprah.
