TeamBretMichaels.com Story: Scott & Heather’s Beautiful Soul

I’d like to share my beautiful story regarding how Bret Michaels provided me with strength, inspiration, and true compassion. I was married to my absolute best friend and soul mate, Heather Ramsey. Our second date took place at a concert where no other then Bret Michaels performed. We had both been long time fans of his music. It was an amazing evening and Heather and I had the awesome experience of seeing him perform. Of course, we saved our ticket…

TeamBretMichaels.com Story: Bill & Kellie’s Story Of Survival

Our story is not only a tale of survival, but of redemption. One year ago, on our way home from work on a Saturday night, my wife and I were struck head-on, by an oncoming car at speeds in excess of 60 mph both ways. For whatever reason, a lady crossed the center line and the rest, as they say is history. My knee was smashed into literally a hundred pieces. I was barely able to talk the Dr. out…

I would like to share my story of survival. It’s been a rough 2 years. First my Father passed away, then I was diagnosed with Stage IIIc Triple-Negative Breast Cancer. First step into the unknown, doctors were not sure if chemo would work, we were hoping we caught it soon enough. At the time of diagnosis I was working as a Special Education Assistant and it brought back memories of Bret. I share a bit of history with him, back…

I can’t thank Bret Michaels and the Life Rocks Foundation enough for sending me to diabetes camp last summer (2013). Camp is the one thing I look forward to all year. For me camp is better than Christmas or birthdays or any other holiday. Camp is a time for me to see my friends that I’ve made there, to do fun activities, have fun, and for once feel like a “normal” kid. Since everyone at camp has diabetes, you no longer have to be embarrassed or…
