I went to the otolaryncologist a few days ago where I was diagnosed with a left SLN weakness, essentially underdeveloped nodes. I recieved a long long list of those things I can and cannot do, the biggest of which being banned from singing for a few weeks. My All-State Choir audition was scheduled for today.
After beating Cherry Creek last night in football, I decided that even if the odds are stacked against you, you have to run for it. I haven't had much practice for the audition, but today, I went out there and gave it everything I had, despite the fact that doctors told me I couldn't. And much like that 41-21 Arapahoe victory last night, I did well.
Sometimes when everything isn't going your way, it's almost better. You know that you have so much to overcome, but you can see that shining picture on the other side. What would happen if you DID do it? And what would happen if you didn't even try?

This totally goes with my question about whether or not to take risks in life. I really like how you've connected your personal life to the stories and overcoming adversity. And now we've seen that you've succeeded :) Love you!
