My life has been full of challenges, even though I’m still young. I was born with a rare condition that makes it hard for me to breathe, and my organs are on the opposite side of my body. I’ve had to use a machine every night to help my lungs, and my parents worked hard to keep me safe.

School was very difficult for me. When I started, I didn’t know my ABCs, and I struggled with math. Making friends was also hard because I was shy and unsure of myself. Things began to change when Friends of the Children–Boston chose me to join their program. They helped me with my studies and gave me chances to try new things.

Three years ago, I met Jesse, one of my mentors. He supported me when I wanted to join a program to build my own bike. Riding a bike seemed impossible because of my breathing problems, but I wanted to be healthier and more independent. With Jesse’s help, I finished the program and even became a youth cycling instructor.

One of the biggest moments for me was when I took part in a 25-mile bike ride with Team Friends. It was challenging, but I pushed myself, and I felt so proud when I finished.
