Aug. 16, 2024 – “This is my sobriety anniversary,” the 34-year-old said while viewing his Twelve Steps app tracker.
“Two years ago today, I was coming off a three-day coke binge where I didn’t eat, sleep or barely drink any water for three days straight,” he recalled. “When I got to Vegas, I weighed 190 lbs. At the end of it, I weighed 163,” he added. “I lost 27 lbs in three days, so my disease is gnarly. It’s not pretty. I went straight from Vegas, checked myself into rehab…again.”
He continued, “Here I am, 31 years old, broke, strung out, sucked up, just skinny, just at rock bottom. I just knew, man, if I don’t change my life in a drastic way, either I’m not even going to be around or something bad, so bad, is going to happen that my life might as well be over.”
Confronting his mortality and his relationship with God transformed his life.
Chet gave his life to Christ after someone close to him died. While at the funeral, the pastor asked if anyone wanted to give their life to Christ.
“The whole church prayed over me and ever since that day, I’ve just felt different,” he revealed. “Everything changed since I started having Jesus in my life.”
He now gives thanks to God for his freedom from substances.
