“Ten years ago today, I was sleeping on a St. Paul sidewalk. One small suitcase of possessions left to my name. I was bankrupt, in every way possible,” he began. “Addiction had taken over my life. I’d been hospitalized, institutionalized and intervened on more times than I can recall.”

The post continued, “I was too sick for anyone to continue to watch. But something happened when I woke up in a hospital bed the next morning, something I’m grateful for to this day. I woke up broken. I had run out of road. I couldn’t do this alone anymore. And I plead for help.”

After getting back on track, Zeger bagged roles in hit TV shows like “Gossip Girl”, “Fear of the Walking Dead” and “Rebel”.
