FAT, SICK & NEARLY DEAD
100 pounds overweight, loaded up on steroids and suffering from a debilitating autoimmune disease, Joe Cross is at the end of his rope and the end of his hope. In the mirror he saw a 310lb man whose gut was bigger than a beach ball and a path laid out before him that wouldn’t end well— with one foot already in the grave, the other wasn’t far behind. FAT, SICK & NEARLY DEAD is an inspiring film that chronicles Joe’s personal mission to regain his health. Joe trades in the junk food and vows only to drink fresh fruit and vegetable juice for the next 60 days, with one goal in mind: To get off his pills and achieve a balanced lifestyle. What emerges is nothing short of amazing – an inspiring tale of healing and human connection.
