Download After the Cheering Stops: An NFL Wife's Story of Concussions, Loss, and the Faith That Saw Her Through AudioBook Free
Former NFL partner Cyndy Feasel says the tragic report of her family's journey into chaos and darkness caused by the harm her husband experienced due to football-related concussions and mind trauma - and the faith that kept her. "If I'd only known what I adored the most would finish up eliminating me and removing everything I adored, I would have never done it." (Give Feasel) Give Feasel spent 10 years in the NFL, participating in 117 games as a centre and an extended snapper usually for the Seattle Seahawks. The skull-battering, jaw-shaking collisions he soaked up during those years finally destroyed his matrimony and fractured his family. Give passed away on July 15, 2012, at age 52, the victim of alcohol maltreatment and a degenerative brain disease known as persistent traumatic encephalopathy, or CTE. Cyndy Feasel observed their life mutually turn into a living hell as alcohol became Grant's medication for an illness rooted in the results of concussions he experienced on the basketball field. Helmet-to-helmet collisions opened the door to CTE and changed him from a sunlit, strong, and caring man into a dark darkness of his previous self. With this raw and psychological memoir that requires a closer look at the damage wrought by a game thousands and thousands love, Cyndy identifies in unpleasant and excruciating depth what can happen for an NFL player and his family when the stadium empties and the equipment and lighting go down. A robust tale of warning for football parents and NFL wives all over, After the Cheering Halts is also a tale of the hard-won anticipation within God's presence when the rest falls apart.
