It all started for me on July 16, 1985. I was born with a lot of complications, so i had Major Surgeries, Minor Surgeries, you name it i overcame it. Believe me, i went thnrough hell and back!!!
In 1988, i went to my very first school called Ryder Elementary School. Even though i don't remember that school at all, i was forced to drop out of that school. In 1990, My mom and i moved down to Marietta Georgia so my mom could finish College down there. Meanwhile, I went to Kincaid Elementary and made some friends there. I had a blast while i was down there, there was a tennis court right outside our apartment so i could watch people play tennis every day and night.
After that, My mom and i moved back to Ohio to live with my Grandpa And Grandma for a while. In 1993, we moved into a beautiful new home. I didn't like it at first beacuse i thought it was boring, but now i REALLY love it here. I played challenger baseball for a couple years from 1995-2001 for the Maumee Cougars and i won a couple trophies!! I also went to Trilby Elementary, Jefferson Junior High, Washington Junior High and finally I graduated from Whitmer High School in 2005. I still keep in touch with my former teachers now and then, i miss them sooo much!!!
My biggest bundle of joy came in 2005 when my dog, Tino came into my life. I got him from an orginization called Canine Companions For Independence (www.cci.org) which is headquartered in Delaware Ohio. My mom and i had to go through rigorus training in order to get him and we were put on a waiting list which took FOREVER, but finally we got him! Tino is a cross between a Lab and a Golden Retriever. Also I have been working with companies like Target, TJ Maxx, Edward Jones, Zepf Center, and finally, Toledo Area Community Credit Union (now Directions Credit Union which is where i am presently working as a data enterer Mondays-Thursdays 9 A.M. to noon It's a tough job but somebodys got to do it, right? LOL!!). I live right next door to a company called Reliance Propane and Fuel Oil (www.reliance-energy.com), and my Grandpa owns the company.
Recently, our Bulk Plant caught on fire and it took a huge hit on us, but it's doing just fine right now. As you may know, i am a huge fan of Game Shows (Past Or Present) and of course. the WWE. I have been a HUGE fan of Pro Wrestling since day 1. I have been to 2 Wrestlemanias (23 and 24), 2 Survivor Series (2005 and 2007), 1 Raw in 1997 at Cobo hall, and finally 3 house shows, 2 in Toledo (1993 and 2005) and 1 coming up in Ft. Lauderdale in Januaury. I hope to one day become a member of the WWE, and travel on the road with them. I am also a prayer reader at my local church, which is awesome as well.
I also participated in Special Olympics over the years, and did some camp counseling too. I want to be best remembered as the guy who wants to motivate other people with disabilities, and to move on with life, no matter how strong, or weak you are. You can overcome all the obstacles in your life and be a healthy person.
