Liam is 10 years old. He has Duchenne muscular dystrophy. It's like ALS but affects young boys instead of grown ups.
He's also part of the baseball team at Northeastern University.
Liam is just one of the seriously or chronically ill kids that Jay Calnan and the folks at Team Impact are putting on college sports teams. Jay's goal is to see a sick child on every college team.
On this episode of the On the Whistle podcast, Jay and I talked about what seriously and chronically ill children can teach college athletes about resilience.
