That’s awesome! One thing I’m not willing to compromise is my integrity. My own life combusted at age 13. And it’s now 32 years later. Maybe if that 13 year old knew that someone had been and is where she is, she’d realize that she was going to make it. If I keep the courage that I have found to myself and don’t allow others to realize that they have the same potential and ability within them: my integrity, character… my purpose.,..goes away

@Abe Bray definitely! There was a young man at the registration desk at the hospital yesterday. I am not sure what he was going through, but he was checking in at the registration desk. And he was sobbing and scared. One can only hope that he will find that river! And when he does then we can all meet and have a party on one the banks! (Kayaking/ rafting metaphor 😅) On a serious note: young man, please know that others have felt and do feel every bit of what you’re feeling and you are not alone with it❤️‍🔥

@Abe Bray that area is awesome! She somehow ended up there after growing up on the east coast 😅

I’m in Virginia (not WV). The Paranationals meet is actually in Parkersburg, WV 😅the one this year is in August again. Lots of juniors and para! Matt is a childhood cancer survivor and does a lot to support Nationwide Children’s Hospital @Abe Bray
