In 2014, he was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis. This did not halt plans, but it did alter...his walking. He is only slightly slower now than when he played baseball (which is why he was a pitcher). He started doing speaking engagements and runs a website devoted to "Pushing Limits for God's Glory" (
warrior613.com
). He is thankful everyday (although there are times he needs to remind himself of this) for this unexpected, but wonderful, journey.
In his current community in Anderson, SC, he serves on the New Member Outreach Team at Concord Baptist Church. He also serves on Anderson Christian School's Board of Directors and serves as the President for the South Carolina Alumni and Advancement Directors Association (SCAAD). He serves as a District Activist Leader for the National Multiple Sclerosis Society and still gives baseball lessons to children in the community. In more recent activity, he is an aspiring Adaptive Crossfit athlete. He recently was chosen as one of 10 seated athletes in the world to compete at Miami's Fitness Festival, Wodapalooza.
