Download or read book My Life on the Line How the NFL Damn Near Killed Me and Ended Up Saving My Life written by Ryan O'Callaghan and published by Akashic Books. This book was released on 2019-09-03 with total page 161 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A riveting account of life as a closeted professional athlete from gay NFL player O’Callaghan, against the backdrop of depression, opioid addiction, and the threat of suicide. “[O’Callaghan’s] story is one of beautiful vulnerability, and it further shows the importance of knowing you aren’t alone.” —Oprah Daily, recommended by Gayle King Ryan O’Callaghan’s plan was always to play football and then, when his career was over, kill himself. Growing up in a politically conservative corner of California, the not-so-subtle messages he heard as a young man from his family and from TV and film routinely equated being gay with disease and death. Letting people in on the darkest secret he kept buried inside was not an option: better death with a secret than life as a gay man. As a kid , Ryan never envisioned just how far his football career would take him. He was recruited by the University of California, Berkeley, where he spent five seasons, playing alongside his friend Aaron Rodgers. Then it was on to the NFL for stints with the almost-undefeated New England Patriots and the often-defeated Kansas City Chiefs. Bubbling under the surface of Ryan’s entire NFL career was a collision course between his secret sexuality and his hidden drug use. When the league caught him smoking pot, he turned to NFL-sanctioned prescription painkillers that quickly sent his life into a tailspin. As injuries mounted and his daily intake of opioids reached a near-lethal level, he wrote his suicide note to his parents and plotted his death. Yet someone had been watching. A member of the Chiefs organization stepped in, recognizing the signs of drug addiction. Ryan reluctantly sought psychological help, and it was there that he revealed his lifelong secret for the very first time. Nearing the twilight of his career, Ryan faced the ultimate decision: end it all, or find out if his family and football friends could ever accept a gay man in their lives.

He saw them beating the poor boy, kicking him while he lay cowering on the ground. He did the right thing, just being a good Samaritan. But when he gazed into the auburn eyes of the eighteen year old boy, his heart jumped, and his stomach tightened. The boy, Colton, was gorgeous, and his sparkling eyes stole Patrick’s breath away. Instantly, he knew why they were beating the boy, and it broke his heart. But what else could he do for the boy? He did his duty as a decent man, and saved Colton from a cruel battering. He never even considered that he’d saved Colton in another way, too. And he certainly never expected that Colton would, in turn, be his savior… * Colton knew why they were beating him. It was because he was gay. It wasn’t the first time, and it wouldn’t be the last. But what he didn’t know was that this time, a man would rescue him. He certainly didn’t know the man would be so handsome, so protective, so caring. He’d never thought he’d meet a man like that. A man he could love. But love is rarely so simple, and Colton was inexperienced. Little did he know, he had awakened Patrick, reignited his cooling heart. Like Patrick had saved him from a vicious attack, Colton was now saving Patrick in his own, special way... * Touch This Fire He burst through the smoke, larger than life. The fireman who would be my savior. He hoisted me over his shoulder, and stole me back from the molten jaws of death. Shawn was his name. And when he set me down outside, smoke bellowing out of every window of the building behind him, he took off his mask, and my heart stopped dead. Those eyes… those beautiful eyes pierced me. Looked right through me. Looked right into me. He told me I would be alright, and then stormed back into the building, a tornado of a man. Shawn looked every bit the hero. But when they carried him out of the building, blackened and hurt, and sent him careening away in an ambulance… The heart that he had stopped with those arresting eyes stopped again. I had to find him. I had to tell him thank you. Maybe I could help him. Little did I know that I would fall in love with him… …and that he would fall in love with me. * Make Me Whole I took him in… I helped to heal him… But it was he who made me whole… Dan and I were friends from work. I never thought anything romantic could blossom between us. We went to the movies as friends, never as dates. We went hiking together as friends, never as a couple. I knew I was missing something in my life… I just didn’t know what. Or who. Until, one fateful hike, Dan slipped and broke his leg. I did the best I could, administered what first aid I could, and together, we made it to the hospital. But he was going to be immobile for a while, and he needed someone to take care of him. I volunteered. I wanted to help my good friend heal. I took him into my home. And suddenly, my life felt so much more complete, as though until now I was not whole… just one part. But I don’t know how Dan feels. All I know is that I’ll take care of him. I’ll help him heal. I never expected that it would be him who made me feel whole. I never expected that, in his own way, he would heal me…
