Hello my name is Brian.

Back in 2018 of May I lost my daughter to suicide, she was my soulmate as a child from the day she was born…my world ended that day…

I was on my second marriage at the time, she was jealous of me mourning my kid… 6 months of hell. I found she was cheating and blamed it on me for mourning.

I left Arizona and worked in Wyoming in the oilfields trying to fix it myself I shut everyone out of my life for over a year… In 2020, the first time I held a gun to my head, I heard my daughter telling me “no dad you can’t do that” . Fast forward to April of 2020, the last time I was done and had a loaded gun, I heard her again and I grabbed my phone sitting in my truck and called a trauma therapist. She saved me that day …

2 years I went to therapy and have pushed through, she would have been 29 on December 20th of this year and after holding a gun to myself 5 different times I’m still here ... I stopped riding for three years, my bike was just sitting there so I sold it.

I moved to Washington close to my brother, got a killer job and bought a new bike ... if you would have asked me 2,3,5 years ago I would’ve said I won’t be here ... I didn’t know any to be ... it’s been tough everyday is a struggle… I like what you’re doing keep it up ... you just might save someone!
