Successful

Tyrese has been diagnosed with cerebral palsy. Playing basketball is one of Tyrese’s favorite things to do. He plays basketball at home on a small court with his dad. Tyrese is hoping to be a basketball player when he grows up. Tyrese and his family feel that although his diagnosis affects his walking, it never stops him from playing, trying every day to get stronger, or having Dreams. Tyrese’s Dream is to go to the Florida theme parks. He chose this Dream because he feels it gives him a chance to enjoy himself, have fun just being a kid, and show that with his abilities, he can still get around rather than having people look at him for his disability. Tyrese also says that having this Dream Come True gives him hope that one day, his dream of walking and becoming a basketball player will come true as well.
