            Charles Mattocks brings an amazing template to the topic.  The director whose own health battle brought us the ground-breaking diabetes docu-series Reversed has also gathered acclaim for his Eight Days Season One that examines the lives of five people living with different stages of cancer.   Mattocks says Eight Days Mental Health will all be about understanding.  “We don’t understand what it’s like looking in that tunnel,” says Mattocks.

            The team will be natural advocates for the men and women who come together for Eight Days Mental Health.  Mattocks explains the profound impact the cancer fighters have made on his life and he expects this to be no different.  Dr. Denise stresses “integrity of the soul” for each housemate who will be cared for, before, during and after the series is long over.
