About My Challenge

Last year my boy lost his light. He decided to leave. His mind was made up. I handed him my phone with a number. He called and the man on the other end listened. That day turned our lives around. I don’t even know his name. Thank you Lifeline.

I'm completing 3,249 push-ups in 24 days to raise awareness and funds for mental health in Australia.

Dedicated to: The man who answered the phone.
