Jim Moss - Personal Life

Personal Life

Jim has been married to his wife Jen since July 9th, 2005. The couple has one son, Wyatt, a daughter, Olivia, and are expecting their third child in July, 2013.

In September, 2009, Jim Moss contracted Guillane-Barre Syndrome. Currently, this diagnosis has been rescinded, leaving his diagnosis as an undefined neuro-muscular disease. The Auto-immune disease stands to end Jim's professional sports career and he has been recording events about the recovery at his blog site. After keeping a private gratitude journal in the hospital and while he learned to walk again, he began to share this publicly which garnered much support. By simply writing what made him smile or that he was grateful for on a piece of paper above an image of a smile, his current project, The Smile Epidemic, was born.

Famous quotes containing the words personal and/or life:

    [The election] ... was an event in which, so far as the personal side is concerned, the victory was to him who lost and the defeat to him who won. I can say that never in the last fifteen years have I had the peace of mind that I have since the election. I have almost a feeling of elation.
    Herbert Hoover (1874–1964)

    This spending of the best part of one’s life earning money in order to enjoy a questionable liberty during the least valuable part of it reminds me of the Englishman who went to India to make a fortune first, in order that he might return to England and live the life of a poet. He should have gone up garret at once.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
