I ran, jumped and shot as best as I could. I knew that everyone else was better than me but I couldn't give up, especially not after what my dad had said. "I have faith in you". I thought about it and what he is going through and had already gone through. I got so emotional that I didn't even want to try out for the basketball team anymore, I just wanted my dad out of the hospital and to be better and my cousin out of my life.
