Bill was once the Dean of Students at the University of New York at Farmingdale. Here is a funny story that he shared with me when we were discussing of all things spinal fusions.

Dear Amy,

Thank so much for sharing your lives with me. You and Brian are really heroes to me and you show to the world that everyone has value as a unique individual and that no one should ever be stereotyped with preconceived notions regardless of first impressions.

I know a little about spinal fusions as I had one over thirty years ago on my upper vertebrae (3 and 4) due to a deteriorated disk possibly due to my high school and college wrestling careers. However, it didn't really affect my life style although I still have some discomfort.  

Love, Bill
