Please meet Eric Seitz...............
"It's a story of survival and decisions. It's also a story with a happy
ending. The middle part was rough. You'll see what I mean. The
happy part is this: The 30 year old class president of the UW
School of Nursing has just graduated. And so begins his next
chapter of life. It's a lot better than some of the previous chapters.
"He's done it all himself," his father David told us. "He did this.
With grants, scholarships, hard work.
He just committed himself to a completely different path."
Wait until you hear the path he was on. It began 12 years ago. He
was just 18 years old, and living on the streets."
