Long before Lance Armstrong, there was Michael Parker. Michael was an outstanding high school linebacker in 1986 when he learned he had bone cancer. While his team went on to win the state championship without his services, he never relented in his determination to do what no one else had ever done: return to play again. Not only to play, but to play in a state championship game. But he first had to overcome cancer and get approval from the high school athletic association to play as a fifth-year senior. This is the story of how one determined boy overcame tremendous odds to triumph over the biggest challenge of his life. It is also the story of how a team and an entire city rallied behind a young man as he grimly fought his way all the way back. An inspirational story for any age.Aswell, Thomas is the author of 'No More Tears to Cry The Story of Michael Parker', published 2003 under ISBN 9781591299325 and ISBN 1591299322.
