My Life Is Not Easy,

Through Adversity We Find Our Heroes.

I'm Afraid To Walk In Public, Because People Look At Me. But I'm Not Going To Stop. I'm Afraid Because If I Want To Commune With My Friend Shad (meier), I Have To Ask Him To Cut My Chicken For Me. But I Did It. And I'm Afraid To Go Back And See My Teammates And Coaches Because I Know That I'll Feel Envy. But I'm Going To Do It Anyway. Because Fear Is Just A Feeling, And If You Can Acknowledge That Fear, Digest That Fear And Overcome It, The Rewards Are Incredible.

Many Als Patients End Up Fading Away Quietly And Dying. For Me, This Was Not Ok. I Did Not Want To Fade Away Quietly.

Als Does Not Affect Cognitive Process. Stephen Hawking, One Of Smartest People On The Planet, Has Als. It Rarely Affects The Eyes. It Doesn't Affect Senses Like Hearing, Taste And Touch.

I Look At The Human Life Like An Experiment. Every New Moment, Every New Experience, Tragic Or Otherwise, Is An Opportunity To Gain A More Accurate Perspective And Helps Lead Me To Clarity.
