Hungry for Justice

UPDATE: As of December 15th I have ended my fast. I lost 16 pounds over the 14 days that I fasted completely. I spent several more days  slowly re-introducing, first juices and then solid food back into my system. I still intend to write a couple more essays, but I have now completed my story, including my explanation of why I chose to end the fast early.

GIFTS: So far we have received over $2000 in gifts. Thank you!

This is the “home” page for my hunger strike.

The 21-day fast began on Sunday evening, November 28 and ended about one week early on Monday, December 13.

  1. David, It would be helpful for people if you explained how the system of family court has mistreated you and other fathers; how does it err? I have a high level of trust in you, but you’re asking for support without giving us information to understand your untenuous situation.

    • Yes, Reva,you’re right. I will add some details before I actually begin the fast. But I intend to use the 21 days of the fast to tell my story. Because Advent begins so quickly after Thanksgiving I wanted to send out this “heads up” message before the holiday.
