Alex Click has Duchenne muscular dystrophy. He was set to graduate from high school last week, but found himself unable to attend due to a change in health. So, when he couldn't go to graduation, graduation came to him - the marching band and all!
Alex's dad, Dave Click, said, "As some of you may know, Alex's spinal compression fractures returned with a vengeance this week the night before his high school senior honors ceremony and three days before his high school graduation. As a result, Alex has been bedridden with back pain this week and could not attend. This broke his heart.
"So, instead, GRADUATION came to him! Within a matter of hours of learning of Alex's situation, our community organized and came to our home to cheer up Alex. In walked a marching band, fellow students and graduates, teachers from Alex's preschool to senior year, administrators, and even the high school Principal to present Alex with awards and a diploma. This was a total surprise to Alex and SO appreciated by us. Thank you West Clermont High School for celebrating with Alex! Truly a special day!"
