[quote=Anonymous]I think the message to avoid this topic is overblown. I'm an English teacher, and I help many kids every year. I've seen this type of essay done extremely well. A couple of possible takes: 1.) One kid had a passion for an extracurricular that was VERY challenging to engage in due to her physical illness. However, she loved this extracurricular so much that she kept pushing through. She rose to pretty high heights despite the fact that it was harder for her than for most kids. 2.) One wrote with such exquisite detail about an episode connected to his illness that you couldn't help but be moved. It showcased his writing chops, and he reflected upon how his anger over having this condition propelled him to achieve things in academics and sports. [/quote]
