My name is William Horton I am navy veteran, husband, father, and grandpa. I have 6 children and 5 grandchildren.
I have worked in the automotive industry for many years until I became ill. I was diagnosed with end stage renal disease and have been on dialysis for almost 6 years. I am very active in my children’s life and enjoy being there for all of their accomplishments and milestones.
Our family is very close and we love spending time together by having Sunday dinners, playing games and attending my youngest daughter’s cheer competitions, I think I am a bigger cheerleader than she is.
I have always been the rock for my family and I keep doing my best every day to keep my spirits up and to fight this disease. Every day gets harder and harder, but it is my family and friends that keep me going everyday.
My goal is to be there to walk all of my daughters down the aisle one day and that is what I am fighting.
