Pete really is a ridiculous human being. How can someone be so smart, funny, honest, open, and sincere... on top of being such a genuinely good dude?
Pete did not have to be this open, but then again, why would I expect anything less from this guy? The strength to be so vulnerable and the courage to do what he needs to do for himself is something that I, as a random stranger, am so damn proud of for him.
You will get nothing but support from this community, Pete. Take pride in what you're doing for yourself. You're going to come out stronger than ever.
