After JayCeon was diagnosed with jr arthritis and severe asthma they told him to take a break from sports, JayCeon changed his diet on his own , worked very hard on off season on his own , studied what he was diagnosed with and made it his business to prove the world wrong, now he’s back playing football , basketball, and boxing and soon he will be running track . When I saw him working that hard it let me know my son is a legend in the making ! No hard work goes unnoticed! He inspired me .
