John Patrick developed G.A.D ( generalized anxiety disorder ) in his mid 40's and became agoraphobic and housebound. Because of his mental health condition, he developed several physical illnesses. At the time some professionals, including John himself, weren't sure if he was going to make it out of the pit or not. His childhood best friend Jack also suffered from a mental health condition, but never made it out and went home to be with the Lord. This short book is dedicated to his friend Jack, and is a story of how the Word of God was instrumental in redeeming John's life from the pit and crowning it with love and compassion.
