A Fan’s Story

There are millions of stories about people saying that Doctor Who saved their lives. For instance, there is a whole article written by a fan about how the show changed them.

"So, putting my flat in order, making provisions for the cats, I prepared. I spent what I thought was my last day on earth, just walking around the resort town where I was living, at the time. Looking out at the lake, and wishing I could be one of those happy, smiling tourists that were everywhere around. And, I said my goodbyes–without getting specific–to my friends on a Doctor Who website.And somehow, they found out–I’d forgotten about my blog entries, that they had access to my blogs, and fiugured out what was going on with me..and one Who fan, went so far as to ring me up long distance from London–literally just minutes before I was ready to do..the act. He talked me out of it."

The story is just sweet because it was all through connections with Doctor Who.
