Meet Brad Hearon: Former meth lab cook and burn survivor
July 5, 2009 by Meth Lab Homes
Brad Hearon, former meth lab cook and burn survivor, was making meth in his El Camino pickup on the night of January 7, 2003, thinking it would be no different than any other time that he’d made meth. But, he was wrong, almost dead wrong. Doctors gave him less than a 1% chance of surviving the burns he received on that fateful night, when his meth lab exploded.
An excerpt from Brad’s My Space Page, says “I went to take my last breath, but my car door opened, and I rolled out. I cried out to God, not only for my life, but also for forgiveness. Forgiveness for all the wrong things I had done. Forgiveness for my fleshly ways, forgiveness for denying Him. And at that moment as I rolled on the ground and finally stopped burning I said thank you Lord. I stood up and looked down at my hands and arms, and I knew it wasn’t good. All I had on were my boxers and one sock. Everything else had burned off but I was alive. Barely, but alive. The guy that was with me went for help, and that was the scariest 3 or 4 hours of my life. I was left by myself out in the middle of the country with no one to help me.”
Brad Hearon is now an inspirational speaker, who talks to kids with the hope of keeping them from going down the road that he went down. If you’ve ever wondered just how dangerous meth labs are, reading Hearon’s story will make it crystal clear.
