Dear Bob, When you came to my school, I was about to end my life. I did not have anything left to do except take up space in everyone's daily lives. I felt useless. I was going to end my life on my birthday, which was coming up on September 26. I had already prepared to hang myself with my own computer cord. It was only a matter of time. But every day I think of how you beat the odds and won against the volleyball team. Now it is my motivation to keep on going. I did not end my life on my birthday. You are my hero Bob. I would like you to share my story with everyone. Just keep motivating. Your Newest Friend, David

I was planning my death a few nights ago, and prior to meeting you today, I cut my wrist twice Tuesday night. However, I'm not the least bit ashamed to say that I will no longer continue to self-mutilate because of your message. All my life, I've just wanted to meet someone who showed that they truly care whether I'm alive or if I just disappear suddenly. You sir, have shown me that there is hope and staying alive is worth it.
