Life for Ian Callinan
has been somewhat of a surprise in 2020. One moment, he was living a typical life of a retiring professional footballer. The next moment, facing the scenario where death could be imminent. And not a scenario one would expect happening in the mid-30s. Thankfully, by all the latest reports, he seems to be on the mend.
