Last night speech, Stuart Scott touched the lives of other people that are dealing with the same thing he is dealing with and that is cancer.

Cancer is a very tuff thing to beat and fight off because of the daily hospital visits, and the long stays at the hospital. It gets very old and makes you want to quit. Stuart Scott knew that if he gave up he was giving up on everyone that he was close to and loved. He showed strength standing upon that stage when he knew life was fighting him back.

A really good quote stood out to me during the speech when Scott said “Every day I am reminded that our life’s journey is really about the people who touch us”. Everyday you should remind yourself that you are not only living for you but you also living for the ones that you love and the ones that loves you back. Another quote that stood out to me was “Fight like hell. And when you get too tired to fight then lay down and rest and let somebody else fight for you”.

Scott fought and fought when he knew it was almost that time for him, he didn’t believe it because he always had a fighting mentality and to never give up.

Finally, he gave a big shoutout to his family such as girlfriend, daughters, mother, and sisters for always being there in such needed moments. When he need someone to cry with he know he can always depends on his siblings. The Jimmy V Perseverance Awards was well deserved by giving it to Stuart Scott. He is a great person and a great family man.
