Week 12: Free Writing

One of the main things I've  learned here at Defiance College is that your team is always there for you. Early this year I lost both my grandpa and grandma due to certain illnesses, however through it all my teammates and coaches were there to keep me up. They made sure I was doing okay and even signed a card for me with really heartfelt words in it. Some of my team even came to the visitation to support me in this tough time as well. As the year progressed, many of my other teammates lost family members as well, yet we were always there to help them out when they were feeling down. Now, one of the toughest people on our team just lost one of her biggest supporters, her brother. During tough times like this, it's important to remember that you have a whole other family standing behind you to pick you up, whether it be from losing a loved one, going through an injury, or simply having a bad day. Your team is always there for you.
