Danny’s last relapse was the breaking point. Detoxing himself at his mother’s house after a dangerous encounter involving fentanyl, he surrendered and asked God for help.
Facing his mounting court cases, he was sentenced to 90 days in treatment at Monarch Shores instead of seven years in prison.
While in treatment, he experienced a supernatural “God shot” encounter with a man who resembled his late father.
Since completing treatment, Danny is gradually rebuilding his life, reconnecting with his family, and developing a strong relationship with faith. Now working at Monarch Diagnostics, he helps others, speaks publicly, and sponsors people in recovery programs.
