Documentary Subject

This is Trevor. 

Trevor has been through a great amount of ups and downs in his life, yet still remains one of the most positive and real people I know. He has a enormous passion for sports, but more specifically football. He was a star in high school, and held the position of the team's captain: quarterback. He worked many hours each and every day in order to be the best he could be. He received many offers from respectable universities that showed interest in him. He ultimately decided to sign with Olivet Nazarene University in Illinois. The summer before he packed up and made the move, he was playing in an adult league flag football game and was struck directly in his left leg. His leg was snapped in half, tearing every tendon and nerve in the way, including his left ankle. Trevor becomes very emotional when asked about his experience because it was career ending. He underwent a major surgery for his leg, and 5 months later had to have reconstructive ankle surgery on the right side. He spent nearly two years at Olivet on the sidelines wishing he could play. He finally got a chance to step on the field sophomore year, and during practice one day, he started to run and his right knee popped, and gave out. It continued to get worse over the next few weeks and ended in yet another surgery. Unfortunately, this only made things worse. He is approaching yet another surgery any day now. Waiting for the call to get surgery is stressful and often causes anxiety. He must wait on a cadaver that had the same body, age, weight, and sex as him in order to go under the knife. I am in full support of him and plan on being there for him through this process, because not only is he my boyfriend, but my best friend.
