Everything’s Better with Inspiration

 

We want to say a special thank you to one of our Facebook friends who recently made us aware of this amazing story.  Nothing can recount the story better then ESPN who has the complete story here on YouTube: J Mac\’s Dream

This is an incredible story of a young man who is constantly overcoming the adversity that autism has brought into his life.  He will be the first two tell you that he feels no different from the other kids in school and is thankful for the life he has been blessed to lead.   J Mac loves sports and that is his medium with which he connects with those around him.  He served as the high school team manager for four years and at the end of those four years his coach wanted to return the favor.  In a story that cannot be scripted, J Mac suited up for the final game of his senior year and the rest was history.  If I give any more detail it will only spoil the video.  Please watch the attached story as I am sure that it will be one of the brightest spots of your day.  To me, this story represents a young man who is dedicated, and father who has done an amazing service to his son, and a coach that truly understands the beauty of sports.  Ironically, to me, this story has very little to do with autism and I think that is just the way J Mac would have wanted it.  Enjoy!
