Glenn Stout is a Red Sox Historian, an author, the series editor of The Best American Sports Writing series and a New England resident. Today Mr. Stout tweeted out an article that was written by me on Friday about the experience of Dont'a Hightower saving his life and my life in the F-5 Tuscaloosa Tornado 4/27/2011 then taking me with him to the Green Room at the NFL Draft 4/26/2012. I was born with Gerstmann Syndrome, which is the inability to see or feel fingers among other things, but Dont'a was my college roommate and has always helped me do what I can't do because of disability. It has been a wild ride, but it really feels great to be recognized for words by a guy like Mr. Stout who chooses the best sports writing year after year. Anyway, I thought maybe you might want to see the article so I will provide a link below. If that isn't allowed feel free to delete the post.
