Joe Tillery in Prairie Village, Kansas
Recent Kansas State graduate Joe Tillery was diagnosed with cystic fibrosis when he was an infant, and his life expectancy meant he wouldn't live to attend college. He did, benefiting from advances in medicine and a positive spirit to live beyond the years of most patients of this deadly disease. Now 25, Tillery finds himself in the hospital less and living life more, including his passion for sharing his thoughts about Kansas State sports on his YouTube channel. Tillery, like Fitz, is living beyond his life expectancy, so call it stolen, borrowed, or earned extra time; passing that expiration date is liberating. After a year in Minnesota with his fiancée, Lauren, Tillery has returned to the Kansas City area to live a life beyond what medicine expected for most of his life.
