Quotation

I know what I’m supposed to be doing right now. Walking onto campus, I went back to that 18-year-old kid and I'm giving her that chance again, with the knowledge I have now. If it wasn't for my recovery, I wouldn't be here today. And if it wasn't for Reconnect, I wouldn't be able to do this."
