Sometimes you hear a story that is so remarkable, it should be in
a book--well this one was. Campy memorialized the amazing
story of his former USC teammate, Jim Henderson, in his book #1
Best Selling book, "Born Into Baseball", detailing his
perseverance and grit when faced with a traumatic injury from a
car accident right when he had just signed his pro baseball
contract with the Montreal Expos. This story is deeper than
playing the game of baseball--this former baseball player kept
grinding to beat the odds with much more at stake. He tells
a riveting story about rehabbing in the hospital for months on
end, regaining some of the gifts he had lost, but feeling a sense
of "surviver's guilt" as others were not progressing as well as
he was. He talks about his X-Rays being used for training
Doctors who specialize in spinal injuries since Jim had the
biggest spinal cord his Doctor had ever seen. Jim is still
the same smart ass as he was when we were young and now as a
Lawyer--the prosecutors have their hands full! And as
always, there's the baseball small world syndrome as Jim (who had
transferred from USC) and Lenny both played for the same Coach at
ASU a decade apart. This show transcends baseball as we all
fall down or get hit with trials and tribulations--it's how you
react that defines you. You'll be inspired by Jim and his
story--maybe even get a bit of strength to guide you through your
current trial.
