Carly Messer is a sweet and fun-loving 16-year-old who has all the grace of a figure skater and the toughness of a competitive hockey player! What a combo! Carly grew up figure skating and started playing hockey at the age of 10, therefore she feels completely at home zooming around the ice. When she began experiencing symptoms of blurred vision, stammered speech, airway closure, and trouble walking, her sport was instantly put on hold. Carly was diagnosed with Guillain-Barre Syndrome.
Carly’s sports dream is to meet Buffalo Sabres NHL player Jeff Skinner and skate with him. She was able to “meet” him via FaceTime this fall and he invited her to a game, once it becomes safe to travel.
