We've been exchanging emails and he asked if I could pass a message along to you guys. He says:
"Tell them I'm starting to get the spark back. I've been helping Aaris and her best friend cope with Sammy's death in the midst of my own mourning. I think I'm really starting to get passionate about making a difference again. It's a lot less stressful when you start out small, y'know. I'm starting to really care about the people again and not about simply 'helping' them. I gave Aaris a speech today that really had a positive affect and I've started to get back into it."
