Wallace ; That was such a warm moving story of Corey Hatch. He and I were such great friends we had a lot in common and he helped me get through some tuff times in my school years. He was the most loving ,giving person I ever knew and I feel so blessed that I was his friend. Thank you for sharing Your Story. Hugs Wallas ❤️

This story had a huge impact on me. I am so grateful you wrote it and shared with your readers! I agree with Scott Hamilton's quote: "The only disability is a bad attitude."

My son, Benjamin Alma Oneto is a similar story. He never, ever let circumstances determine his outlook or enjoyment of life. He married his college sweetheart, and they adopted their son Tyler, and he has numerous challenges to his health, such as cancer, digestive problems, Diabetes...you name it, he has dealt with it, along with Cystic Fiberosis. A new set to f Lungs gave him a new lease on life about 12 years ago, and he continues to meet life’s challenges head on....and his family follows the Dallas Cowboys, and goes to the beach regularly. Ben also coaches Tyler’s soccer team, between bouts of life threatening issues on a weekly basis. Heroes are made, not born. He is mine.
