I've got one of those stories from childhood. I was born with club feet (inverted feet) that, in the 1980's, had to be slowly turned outward. Every doctor I had said the same thing; no impact sports, no running, concentrate on swimming, etc.

One doctor, Dr. Frank Hamlin (who listened to Gwar while performing surgery) said to my dad, "Release the kid. He's not strong enough for me."

And that, Everitt, kicked off a great childhood of climbing trees, hunting squirrels, and becoming a college athlete.

That's why this post was important to me.

glad you liked it.
