February 5, 2021 - Lil' Fan Friday196 views“I’ll be honest, the look on your face after the playoff game with the Browns broke my heart. It has laid on my heart to share a story with you.
Meet my son Ben….yes named after you. (Quick back story. My brother’s a Bengals fan and he named his youngest Carson, after Carson palmer. I told him one day if I had a little boy I’d name him Ben, after Ben Roethlisberger) So here I have my Ben. Ben was born 17 weeks premature and spent 11 months at Nationwide Children’s Hospital in Columbus, Ohio. He has cerebral palsy. He uses a wheelchair to get around – which is black and yellow. He uses braces to help him walk. They have the Steelers helmet on them. He uses a communication device. He tells me “Go Steelers †Ben is 9-years old now. We watch football together and he tells me “Browns stink!â€.
I’ve almost lost this boy too many times to count. This past summer we had a trip planned to Kennywood and to come watch a practice. Of course Covid happened so the trip was put on hold. We will get there soon. My son has never given up. As many times as I was told he was going to die and to turn off his machines, I told them it would be him in control of his own destiny. He never gave up.
You control your own destiny. Make this off-season your bit*h, and come back like never before!
I hope to make it to a practice or game soon. I’ll bring my miracle so I can show him also what it looks like to not give up.†— Rebecca.
