Frank Ferrante

Frank Ferrante is the subject of the hit documentary, May I be Frank?, which documents the transformation of his life. He unknowingly stumbles into a local restaurant in San Francisco, Cafe Gratitude, a raw, organic and vegan cafe. As he becomes friends with the staff, he keeps returning to the cafe where he feels welcomed and free from his collapsing personal life. On one such visit, Frank is asked by Ryland, one of the servers, “What is one thing you want to do before you die?” Frank replies “I want to fall in love one more time, but no one will love me looking the way I do.”

Inspired by the possibility of helping Frank, Ryland invites him to come into the cafe every day for the next month. Armed with a camera and a wide open heart, Ryland soon enrolls his brother Cary, and Conor, his best friend, to participate in supporting Frank’s transformation. The final agreement is made that for the next 42 days, Frank will turn his life over to three twenty-something young men committed to his healing and prepared to coach him physically, emotionally and spiritually.

What happens in the film is truly incredible and inspirational.

    I loved this. The emotional honesty between you both is very deep. Having been an alcoholic and drug addict before my obesity I know this dark night of the soul intimately. I was in an abusive relationship with my husband for 37 years. We were both abusive to each other but totally in love at the same time. The movie Days of Wine and Roses hits below the belt. I did find Alanon and then eventually AA and managed to stay with him for another 18 years but it was not healthy. I would have done every and any thing for him except not be there for our daughter. She was the main reason for my sobriety. She still is to this day. When I became sober and started taking responsibility for my life so I could be there for her, my husband and I lost our lives together in so many ways. I went to Alanon first to see if I could find a way to get HIM sober. I went for two years before I began addressing my addictions. I started AA trying once again to find another way to get HIM sober or at least a better way to be able to live with him. It seemed that everyone in Alanon got rid of the alcoholics in their lives. I wanted to save our relationship. He died in November of 2011. It has devastated me. It was such a painful process of watching him self destruct. I loved this man more than my life. I was deeply touched by Frank’s wish to fall in love again before he died. I find myself at around 300 pounds. No one would want me and I tell myself that I don’t want another relationship. I think that I am lying to myself. I have been scrambling to find my new place in this life. I have shut myself away from even the possibility of the idea of a new relationship. It doesn’t seem to be my time to leave this earth even though I feel pretty ready. My daughter is 24 now and she can’t be my reason for living too much longer. I know that’s not healthy. This segment between you, Jon, and Frank has touched me in a very deep place. I haven’t really admitted these feelings to myself. I will have to think about this long and hard. I hope that this story hasn’t been too long for you but I felt compelled to share it with you. Thank you both so much.

    OMG wonderful! Thank you for including his story in our Total Transformation package. Cafe Gratitude published a cookbook which has been gathering dust on my shelf for some years. I’m going to give it another look with the fresh eyes I’m being given by you, Jon.

    Thank you thank you thank you!
