Casey O'Brien has defeated cancer four times, and that doesn't stop him from being around the game he loves as a member of the Minnesota Golden Gophers. Despite his lack of playing time as a third-string placeholder, O'Brien is a true inspiration for everyone battling life-threatening illnesses.

It’s 3 am and I have to be up in a few hours. I’m so glad I told myself “just one more video just one more” before going to bed. I’m glad I found this video. This young man is an inspiration.

I have incurable stage 4 thyroid cancer metastasis in my spine/ vertebrae. I have had two serious blood infections, a thyroidectomy, 3 surgeries that split my back wide open with a 10 inch incision, a wound in my back that infected my hardware, my hardware was taken out, a CDIF infection that placed me back in the hospital for a month and kidney failure last year.

I too have yarn wrist bands from my times at being at my Congenital Heart Disease Camp. I’ve lost many friends. Friends i called brother and sister and mother. It’s never easy, but knowing i’m not alone in this world dealing with a disease that’s just like cancer. I’m proud this boy that became a man which made him an inspiration to many kids and adults. God bless him and his family and to everyone dealing with a disease or knows someone who is. You’re not alone.

This young man has more of a positive perspective on life than most of us will ever know. We can all get frustrated, upset, depressed or want to give up sometimes. This kid not only doesn't give up, he doesn't know the meaning of "quit". To turn a situation like his into a positive humbles me. God bless this young man.
