Yes, losing a loved one is heartbreaking and I’m not sure the sad days will ever end, but one thing I do know is…if you find the light in every situation, this will make it easier. Soccer has been and is my light. Soccer has allowed me to grab hold of my struggles and fight them off one day at a time. When I step out on the field, I feel strength and empowered because I know deep down my Dad is right there with me. He’s here for it. All of it."
