1. What a wonderful man he is

Dare I say, a "giant" of a man. He has a great attitude, although he recounts the health issues and bullying he's had to endure. I was extremely short myself until about the age of 13 and then I did "shoot up" as Reich was told he would do. I am now a very average height. But it was no fun being in fifth grade and constantly being mistaken for a kindergartner.
