Filling a Need

There are many ways to think about this story of Robbie, who has duchenne muscular dystrophy.

You might learn something about a young man determined to carve out a path for himself. You might learn about the love of a devoted mother. You might think about how companies tell their stories.

But take a minute to consider another character in the story, Bill.

What do you learn about a guy who both uses what he knows and also spends a lot of his time helping someone else?

We all have things we can do, big and small, and we can give our time and talents to help others. Bill is not the central character in Robbie’s story. Without Bill, though, there might not be a story.

What might you do to bring a smile or even a sense of hope to someone else?
