I had the pleasure of meeting Ed Port. He has an amazing outlook on life. Even with his condition he sees the good in the world.

CAPTION: Ed Port, 41, of Austintown, Ohio, suffers from neurofibromatosis, a genetic disorder that causes benign tumors to grow on the ends of nerves. Port recently had his 22nd surgery of his life and first of possibly three surgeries at St. Joseph Hospital. “It hasn’t been easy,” Port said. “There’s always hope for a better tomorrow and a better future.”

Here’s a link to our story.

Here’s a link to Ed’s website.

I made my way up to Michigan last week and spent a few hours at Camp Echo for a story. Had an awesome time! It reminded me of my time in Indian Guides and made me miss my youth.
