Oyier’s life post TV
As a newscaster, Michael Oyier had a very visible public life. He was at the helm of his career as a newscaster and he was really good at it. In private however, there were things going on that led him to a question who he had become, and the private struggles that he was dealing with.
The struggle of who he had planned to be as a father and what the reality was, unresolved grief.
He fell into deep depression.
This saw him get into a downward spiral that depression is. Darkness and despair gnawed at him. Thank God for the people who refused to give up him.
Friends and family who held onto him and prayed with and for him. People who love him and encouraged him to recovery.
