I served three tours in Iraq with the Army's Third Infantry Division, and Desert Storm/Shield in the Marines. I was medically retired in February 2010 after a run in with an IED. At Walter Reed, I was diagnosed with Traumatic Brain Injury to include cognitive disorder & difficulty with balance, Post Traumatic Migraine headaches, Herniated disc L5-S1, Patellofemoral syndrome, Tinnitus, Lower left & right extremity Polyneuropathy and left ear hearing loss. I spent the next 26 months in a Warrior Transition Unit receiving physical, speech, occupational, balance, and TBI therapies. My family loves NASCAR, each has their own favorite driver. We watch NASCAR on T.V. every weekend and I’ve been told Daytona is something you have to experience at least once in your life so this is what we want to experience together. My Hero’s Wish is to take my family to the Daytona 500 on 20 February 2011 so my family can experience something memorable together.
