It’s Oct 11, 2001. I’m a senior in college and an All-American athlete. It’s the night before a football game. My Dad’s my biggest fan, my greatest ally and together we’re dreaming of me playing pro football. Life feels great. And then, I get an unexpected call from my sister:
Growing up in the small town of Delaware, Ohio, I overcame feeling dumb, feeling lonely, and being bullied for being in special needs classes by dedicating myself to becoming the best athlete I could be. By my side the whole way was my dad supporting me, coaching me, and cheering me on… he was my best friend and my greatest coach.
