    Over the last four years I wasn’t able to walk. I used to be outdoors a lot coaching little league games. Raising my daughter not on sidelines. I was able to enjoy the experience first hand. Then all a sudden one day my feet started to hurt over the next 4-5 years if have two surgeries and right leg amputation. Everyone goes through challenging times through life’s journey. Really comes down to how you get though the tough times. Growing to enjoy life even just a little more through adversity isn’t easy. I still can’t change what I had to go through on crutches so I did what I’d do everyday either way. That was get up get out and expect to have others treat you different. Although, pain often was unbearable. The worse part was having people treat me like I couldn’t do anything for myself. My life wasn’t over it was just harder to get around and more painful to boot. Now I have the ability to walk and as if it was a dream I’m Back into the park and coaching. When your out in the world I hope you don’t judge based on one’s appearance, gender, religion, or finances. God made us equal. So treat others that way. Far to many people are lost to suicide or drowning in depression.methods of communication we have. I felt like I was just trying to avoid pain and people for brief moment in my struggled time. My daughter is the one who said to me dad one leg or two legs your still my hero. That day made me realize it’s not what you think you are in life. Life is what others believe in you. know you are important with a purpose and be the best you thanks
