“Sometimes you just get a little lost, you need a little guidance,” said Fresh Start Recovery client Michael Machuk. “And what can come out of that is just amazing. Just beautiful.”
Machuk lost both his legs as a result of an addiction he has been struggling with for decades.
He came to Fresh Start in 2014 and said he found a community of support that lifted him out of the darkest moments in his ongoing recovery.
