SEE, THERE IS ALWAYS A CHANCE TO CHANGE YOUR LIFE AROUND - THIS MAN'S STORY MAKES MY WORK WORTHWHILE
Tuesday, October 20, 2009 at 09:49PM I had the honor and the privilege to sit beside Richard Kane, author of "The Bronx Street Kid" on the Strategy Room (Fox's online show). He tells an incredible story: sexually abused at age 7, physically abused by his father for years, a Hells Angel and a long history of crime...but now he's been sober for many years and has written a book.
He is an inspiration to all. Even when times are rough, even when you have made mistakes, there is always the opportunity to turn your life around.
Thank you for your contribution, Mr. Kane. I wish you the best in the years to come.

I know Richard and he walks the walk.
He is an inspiration to a lot of people, me included.
Rich is an amazing individual, a gentle soul.
I have known him for a few years now and it has been a privilege.
He is inspiring.
I was friends with Rich's brother growing up in Bergenfield. His story is one of courage and a tremendous will to survive. Inspiring.
I was a friend of Jeanine and Harold growing up in Bergenfield also. Can't wait to recieve your book. Your road has been long so far .Now your journey in life has begun. Wishing you the best life can bring.
Many may feel as if Richie is breaking the 11th tradition of AA. This may or may not be true...
All I can write is of my experience with this sober man. I have seen first hand his battles within himself and he has over come them on his spiritual journey through the 12 steps and gods grace. He is an inspiration and it is my hopes that the works he is trying to do, will help others to recover from alcoholism.
Best wishes Richie..."and though he may come to scoff, he may remain to pray"
