“My Last Breath” Documentary
Josh LaRue was born in Brainerd Minnesota in 1974. He grew up a happy kid, one of 6 kids in their family’s farmhouse on Partridge Lake near the town of Garrison. Like most kids, he was active, adventurous, and loved the outdoors. He also grew up with asthma, which in his teen years became increasingly worse. The winter seasons seem to heighten Josh’s asthma with the number of trips to the ER increasing as winters passed. On a cold January morning in 1992, Josh and his family’s lives were changed forever.
I am making this film on Josh’s life and death. His story is one to be told and I am fortunate enough to be able to tell it. It is a remarkable tale of one family’s journey overcoming the greatest of obstacles a family could endure. Josh and his family live in the hills of Southeastern Ohio just outside the quaint town of New Concord. A place dear to me, as I grew up just miles from where Josh now resides.
This is a work in progress with many more elements to gather.
