Inspiration from Jim Valvano

Former North Carolina State Basketball coach Jim Valvano led his team to the NCAA National Basketball Championship in 1983. He passed away from cancer 10 years later. He was of one of the most inspirational people I've ever heard. He is quoted as saying:

To me there are three things everyone should do every day. Number one is laugh. Number two is think -- spend some time time in thought. Number three, you should have your emotions move you to tears. If you laugh, think and cry, that's a heck of a day.

My father gave me the greatest gift anyone could give another person, he believed in me

Don't give up, don't ever give up

Cancer can take away all of my physical abilities. It cannot touch my mind, it cannot touch my heart, and it cannot touch my soul.
