I am so unbelievably proud of Cooper and all of his amazing accomplishments! It has been a true pleasure watching him grow into the smart, athletic, kind, driven, (tall!!) young man that he is. It feels like yesterday he was coming by to tell me all about the very important kindergarten things that happened on his first day, bang on my calculator and draw me pictures of his favorite dinosaur 🥹
When I heard about his accident my heart just dropped. There were no words. To see Cooper today is to see the epitome of beating the odds with hard work, dedication and resilience. *WHEN* you get in to the Academy, Coop, I will be right there cheering you on while you exceed your goals and dreams.
To John, his amazing dad/one of my best (lifelong) friends, you did right by this kid! You raised an incredible young man. I only *slightly* freaked out when adding him as a driver recently to your policy. 😂😅
All of us at MEIA are so proud of you Coop!! Keep crushing life, dreaming big and making us proud!! 🥰
An incredible update to Cooper’s story ❤️
After recovering from a serious e-bike accident and receiving care at Johns Hopkins All Children’s Hospital, Cooper is thriving. He recently completed full freshman seasons of both football and lacrosse, maintained straight A’s, and was accepted into the highly competitive STEM program at the United States Naval Academy — an amazing step toward his future goals.
Watching Cooper continue to overcome challenges and accomplish so much inspires us every day, and we’re honored to have been part of his journey.
