Join TribeTHON and Sigma Chi in keeping the Children's Miracle Network Movement alive at William & Mary! Come out to Commonwealth Auditorium to hear WILLIAM & MARY ALUM JOSH SUNDQUIST share his incredible journey of overcoming childhood cancer and growing into not only a Paralympian, but a Children's Miracle Network celebrity partner.
"Josh's journey began at age nine, when he was diagnosed with childhood cancer. He spent a year on chemotherapy treatments and his left leg was amputated. He trained for the next six years and in 2006 he was named to the U.S. Paralympic Ski Team for the 2006 Paralympics in Turino, Italy. A multi-season athlete, Josh is the only person in history to ever have been named to both the U.S. Paralympic Ski Team and the U.S. Amputee Soccer Team."
Josh Sundquist is the author of the national bestseller "Just Don't Fall," and he has been featured on CNN, USA TODAY and NPR. He has spoken to hundreds of thousands of people across the globe including audiences at Fortune 500 companies, inner-city public schools and the White House.
