November 17, 2016 | Football
Kid Captain is a partnership between Children's of Mississippi and the Mississippi State Bulldogs to honor pediatric patients. Their inspirational stories remind us just how truly courageous these young people are. We are pleased to introduce this week's Children's of Mississippi Kid Captain Jordan Morgan from Clinton, Mississippi.
Jordan Morgan – Clinton, MS
Jordan Morgan is a chef, an athlete, an artist, and a film producer. He loves to swim and play wheelchair basketball – go Wheelcats! – and he can roller skate…using his walker. There's almost nothing Jordan can't do. Now a vibrant 13-year-old, Jordan was born 11 weeks premature and was later diagnosed with spastic diplegia, a form of cerebral palsy. He makes time for his many hobbies and interests around daily physical therapy exercises with his mother, Deborah, and weekly appointments with specialists at Children's of Mississippi. Jordan never meets a stranger and gives you plenty of reason to smile when you're around him.
