I was supposed to work baseball on April 7, but it was raining the morning of and the night before making the fields unplayable. I talked to Kendra and she told me to come back for the two o’clock Men’s Lacrosse game. I got there thirty minutes early as usual. Drew told me I would be on camera again.

    Like all children all I ever wanted was to be big and do big people things. I engaged in a few family members that I would look up to and try everything they did. I use to pretend to go grocery shopping and being a parent at times. At the age of eight, I had worn the worst pain ever and that was watching my five, year old brother getting hit by a car while trying to cross the street riding a bicycle that had a loose chain. I remember him trying to get up and get to me, but a few adults that had witnessed the accident had told him to lay down.…

    Being short was a struggle throughout my whole life due a number of sports that I have played which involved my height. I had started playing sports in my early years at St. Thecla Catholic Middle School.
