In this video, Nash relates his story about what it was like growing up as one of Jehovah’s Witnesses and losing a brother to a tragic accident and the near fatal accident of his father. He talks about his decision to dedicate his life in baptism to the Watchtower organization as a result of these tragic events. His world really began crumbling down after losing another brother but this time to suicide.

Suicide is the most difficult loss to understand and leaves everyone in disbelief, confusion and indescribable turmoil. Nash can only describe it from his perspective because it is different from everyone else. He experiences a range of emotions and have cycled through bouts of anger, sadness, depressions & anxiety.

Time heals all wounds and with the proper support system and therapy, Nash has been working through the difficult times.
