A Marion teen is playing his favorite sport with ease thanks to a generous donation.

Isaiah Parrish plays basketball with his friends at Marion Junior High School. He runs up and down the court and sinks his shots with finesse.

But that hasn’t always been the case for this active 14-year-old.

Isaiah was in a lawn mower accident 10 years ago.

Doctors were unable to save his leg.

That was devastating news for his mom, Brandy Parson. She says Isaiah has always been an active kid.

NOTE:  I am very familiar with Nubability, and DuQuoin athlete Sam Kunert during his high school playing career.  He was an inspiration to several people including myself.
