Our weekend with all the incredible people from Outward Bound Intercept was seriously one of the highlights of my entire life. And the best part? Seeing Drew. Sharing in his adventures, his learning, his accomplishments... his failures... his making it back up on top. Meeting his course mates; 7 other young men going through their own personal struggles, and coming to terms with positive change. It was the most powerful, healing, touching, amazing experience, and I haven't cried this much in a very, very long time.
Tears from the heart for the paths we have all traveled.
Tears of relief for the strides these boys have made.
Tears of joy for seeing our son find his moment of connectedness and realization.
Tears of wonder, remembering when I forged a similar experience in my own learning.
Tears of thanks for others who dedicate their lives to helping very special young men and women find their way.

Thank you, Outward Bound. I am a supporter of what you do forevermore.
