I feel retarded doing this but I can't think of anyone else more in need. So here goes, I have multiple sclorosis it is an auto immune disease, my immune system attacks my central nervous system. I've had it for about eleven years now and I am only 28. I use to be an athlete baseball basketball, skateboarding, bmx ect. Until I was about 20 the MS decided I didn't get to do those things any more, it also decided I didn't need the love of my life any more because she left me because her father died from MS so she couldnt bare to see me with it. I then lost my job the last thing left, mostly due to the fact that I didn't care any more, what was the point without the love of my life and since I would die from MS or end up in a wheel chair. So I lived ingulfed in depression wanting to die trying to fulfill that half assedly, unsecessful ofcourse I will spare you the details. Until I was about 22 or maybe 23 not sure, I found pool in a bar. I put my quarters up and I beat everyone in the bar all night getting that feeling I use to get from all the things I had lost. Plus I thought I was really really good. I had been bitten by the pool bug and started playing every night, I met some league players that showed me I wasnt necessarly as good as I thought I was which only fueled me further to what I called obsession what I now call plain ol pool passion. At that point I was playing even more but mostly in pool halls and saw guys like Mike the Z man zimmerman play the game like it was soppose to be played and showing me I definetly was no where near really good (yet) which again made me love the game even more. So I played even more, and even when the MS was beating me down I could still play maybe not great but I could still do it. I then realized pool had given me back so much of what I lost, it gave me back a reason to live. It was right then I confessed my love for pool but the beauty of this romance is pool would never leave me, pool didnt care about my MS, it didnt care how old I was it would always be there, even when my legs and feet were completely numb or on fire or my eyes were legally blind to drive, if I couldnt think straight even if or when I am in a wheel chair pool will still be there, she wasnt going any where and neither was I "til death do us part". I progressed pretty fast I got to be around a 7-8 apa, but now the MS has gotten worse I am abou a 5-6 and it makes my legs and arms very weak some times which is also why I would like this cue so it wouldnt take as much effort to break hard. The last reason and definetly the most important reason I want this cue is Kid Delicious is my hero!
