An inspirational story!
I had the privilege of knowing Bob when I served as the Chief Medical Officer for all the Shriners Hospitals from 2000-2012. I particularly enjoyed being part of the men’s Christian group at HQ that he organized. Bob’s story about his OI and his multiple surgeries and his determination not to allow that to interfere with his accomplishments is an inspiration to not only kids with OI but to kids with any “disability”. What has always impressed me about Bob is that he always gave God the credit and the glory. I am very pleased that we have kept in touch. Well done good and faithful servant!
