My hero is my 4 year old brother Blake. I chose him because of his bravery. Blake has chronic renal failure (CRF). He’s not on dialysis or the transplant list at this time. However, he does take medication 13 times every day to maintain his health. Blake also has to see doctors several times throughout the year and is sometimes subjected to painful tests. He has not allowed any of this to crush his childhood spirit.
When I’m faced with new challenges of my own I think of Blake. His bravery is something I would want to incorporate into my own life. I would also want his spirit. No matter how hard the situation is, Blake finds a way to laugh. Blake is maybe my little brother, but he has a lot to teach people. He is my hero.
