6 Minutes Wrestling with Life

What would you do if you were presented with a choice of caring for and trying to cure a sick family member with a brain injury or living and loving life?

I hope you would do what I did.

And choose both.

6 Minutes Wrestling with Life is about the two 6 minute events that have impacted my life.

In 2009, my nineteen your old daughter, Jess, lost oxygen to her brain for 6 minutes.

In 2012, my eighteen year old son, Maverick, won the New York State High School Wrestling Championship in a 6 minute match.

This story is about my journey through the depths of despair to the euphoric highs, and the life lessons that I learn along the way.

It is about the true meaning of sport, teamwork and family.

"6 Minutes Wrestling with Life" is about the ability to handle adversity and keep moving forward towards achieving your goals in your life.
