Drew, age 16 of Terrell, has been a patient at Scottish Rite Hospital since he was five years old. He had his right foot amputated and wears a prosthesis on that leg. Drew loves playing football and baseball. When he grows up, he wants to use his inclination for math and science to help people by becoming a pharmacist. He has skied once before in Keystone, Colorado, and is excited to hit the slopes in Winter Park.
