Live TV, I have been afraid of it for as long as I started this whole Team Donate Life journey. The thought of being interviewed on live TV seriously freaks me out. Which is why my Mom waited until last night to tell me we would be on Channel 10 this morning. I agreed in the beginning of this journey to do as much media as I need to. My Mom told me the riding wouldn’t be the hard part for (not entirely true) me but the media stuff would be the hard part because I’m so shy. She asked if I was willing to step outside my comfort zone and do it. I figured I would somehow get used to it and to be honest it hasn’t been that bad so far, but today….Wow I was seriously freaking out! I’m so glad I did it though. It was so awesome to see the behind the set stuff while they filmed. Everybody was so nice to me too. My whole class watched from school, actually my whole school watched it! When I got back to school everybody was really nice and supportive. If you want to check it out here is the link.

Connor – You did a GREAT job on Sacramento and Company. Way to go !! I know you were nervous, but you set it aside and presented well and you (and your mom) looked great in your TDL gear. Way to Go !! Keep expanding and stepping out of your “comfort zone” – you are a fantastic kid and growing everyday into so much more…you are changing lives !
