Some cool news.
Last week I was honored to be a guest on Cinema Files Radio, which has apparently been downloaded thousand of times on iTunes. If you missed it..

That seemed to have set off a chain reaction. I’ve been asked to do 3 more podcast since this. One tonight (will air later), another this Saturday LIVE and the 3rd is TBD.

Subscribe to see the first episode of YouTube LIVE on Saturday. Guests Kevin Porter, Dirk Ellis, Kayla Swift, and Connor Magill.

I’m sorry this isn’t film related.... but it’s super important to me.

I wish I had something happier to post for my g/f’s birthday. Instead, I’m going to use this opportunity to share her story. This last week Ashley was diagnosed with Chronic Lyme Disease, Toxic Mold, high levels of Led and a zero level of Progesterone along with the issues she knew she already had like Crohn’s, Colitis, H Pylori and SIBO. Symptoms include: chronic brain fog, distended stomach, low stomach acid, weight loss, random pain all over, weakness/fatigue, chronic imbalanced digestive system... the list goes on resulting in her feeling miserable 24/7. All of these issues are connected and can be combatted with a high immune system, which hers is poor but can be restored with costly treatments that limited issuance won’t cover.
She’s been battling this recent flare up for the last 10 months which has resulted in her not being able to work or even drive her car for the entire time, so this has come at a high financial impact. Long story short, she has worked HARD on fighting everything, but the fight has been severely an uphill battle for the last 16 years all while seeing a dozen+ different doctors in the process.
I’m sharing her in hopes of help. I love her like crazy, and moving our relationship and life together forward is next to impossible without her health. She is the most kind, generous and determined person I’ve ever met, and I want to see her have her life back. I appreciate anyone who takes the time to read, share or donate.
Thank you, everyone 🙏

-Dirk
