At 25 years old, Tony Anthony Jordan was asked to write down his life

goals, and he realizes now that all have come true, some more than he

ever imagined. With a congenital heart defect, Tony remembers arguing

with his protective mother to get into sports. He has recently undergone

surgery and talks about how he felt at peace, knowing that he had

accomplished so much if something went wrong. Tony is an artist who

teaches at a junior high school and university. He is a father of four

and enjoys parenthood.
