How Chris’ family support him throughout the text is by telling him the things he can do when he is disabled and how they can help.I think it’s important to have support from friends and family because those are the ones who love you the most and they care about you. To support this I found the following details in the text “I didn’t like the idea, but Mom and I learned to live with it. Dad took it hard, real hard.” “I hadn’t thought about that when Mr. Evans, an elder in our church, asked me if I wanted to join a wheelchair basketball team he was starting.
“We won’t have the experience of the other teams in the league,” he said. “But it’ll be fun.” “When I told Mom, she was all for it.”]]> 2021-02-02 03:45:54 UTC https://padlet.com/dkang37/n69rk8e7qeqx8dq7/wish/1151739138 732407_1 https://padlet.com/dkang37/n69rk8e7qeqx8dq7/wish/1168577972 That Chris overcomes adversity, Chris still wants to feel like a kid by playing wheelchair basketball. Chris’s attitude  showed he wanted to play some type of sport, just to feel normal again.

Chris’s mom and dad have helped him with his wheelchair problem because even though it looks like the dad doesn’t care, he deep down cares for Chris. His dad helped him get better at basketball before the accident and his Mom helped him get into wheelchair basketball. ]]> 2021-02-05 15:04:09 UTC https://padlet.com/dkang37/n69rk8e7qeqx8dq7/wish/1168577972 dkang37 https://padlet.com/dkang37/n69rk8e7qeqx8dq7/wish/1168827944 A person can overcome adversity by_____________.

It is important to have support from family and friends because you need support in order to let yourself know that you are able to do something, even if you think you can't your family will.

With all their shooting, Madison is just eight points ahead. We can catch up.” I looked at Dad to see if he was kidding. He wasn’t.
