In this episode of We're Not Stumped, we highlight two remarkable stories of resilience and determination. First, we dive into the journey of Parker Byrd, the East Carolina University baseball player who became the first NCAA baseball athlete to play with a prosthetic leg. After a life-altering boating accident, Parker refused to let his dream slip away, proving that perseverance can redefine what’s possible in sports.
Next, we explore the incredible impact of the Kirstie Ennis Foundation. Founded by Marine veteran and amputee Kirstie Ennis, the foundation empowers individuals through outdoor adventures, education, and support for adaptive athletes. Kirstie, who lost her leg in a helicopter crash while serving in Afghanistan, has since become a world-class mountaineer and advocate for those facing adversity.
Join host Mike Bolland as he shares these powerful stories of overcoming obstacles, breaking barriers, and inspiring others to push beyond their limits. Whether it's stepping up to the plate or scaling mountains, Parker and Kirstie prove that limb loss is not the end—it's just the beginning of a new chapter. Tune in for an episode filled with courage, ambition, and hope!
