Sports has always played an important role in my family's life. From kindergarten to the end of Middle school I played soccer. But hockey is without a doubt the most important sport to my family. Both my younger brothers along with my dad have played it their entire lives. In fact, my family enjoys hockey so much that when I was just ending elementary school we started housing players for the Plymouth Whalers hockey team of the OHL. We still house players to this day.
In 2007 my mom was diagnosed with breast cancer, which had a tremendous effect on my family's life. After a year of painful struggle she was able to beat her breast cancer and is healthy to this day. Last year for breast caner awareness month I joined the Plymouth Whalers in dying my hair pink to show my support against breast cancer. Earlier this year my grandma was diagnosed with sinus cancer which has started a whole new struggle in my family's life.


Without a doubt my epilepsy has made the biggest impact on my life. I was diagnosed with epilepsy in fourth grade and has made my life more than difficult. I missed a large amount of school from my seizures giving me more work than most students. It effects mostly and eyes along with my memory. I have yet to find a solution to my disability.
Since my disibility prevents me from playing video games TV has been a huge part of my life. Although has time went by I began to watch less and less. My taste in shows has changed somewhat throughout my life. Elementary school was the time when I would pretty much watch any cartoon on TV. During middle school I watched cartoons on a different level. High school to now my taste has been more for live action comedy shows.
