Alex Manard is a guy I met through a mutual friend, and we immediately clicked because we had similar ideals and points of view on many issues. I'm glad to call him a friend, and I'm even more proud to be able to share his story with everyone. His condition is dwarfism, I and he is a great representation of that condition. We talk about the misconceptions of dwarfism, also the many different variants of dwarfism. One of the things that I got to learn from Alex is how much pain goes through, because of his size and not developing properly, how much he has to endure, and how much he will have to take down the road. He has a very strong spirit, and he doesn't let anything hold him back, he's been on many reality shows, and he has been a very strong advocate for those in the dwarf community. He pushed through his mental health and the naysayers, and he just wanted to push the boundaries of what someone with his condition could do, and put himself on a stage where people were forced to recognize and except him as a person with strength.
