A sweet photo of Orlando Pride's Carson Pickett bonding with a two-year-old fan, who was also born without a left forearm, has gone viral.
Orlando Pride soccer player Carson Pickett and two-year-old Joseph Tidd have shared a special connection since meeting in April. Even at such a young age, Joseph was able to recognize that he and Pickett were similar — they were both born without a left forearm — and Pickett has since become Joseph's role model."Literally within five minutes of me meeting him, we had an instant bond," Pickett told USA TODAY Sports.
While Joseph isn't able to voice what it means to be able to look up to a person who looks like you, a moment captured between the player and the young fan speaks volumes. The photo, taken after a June 1 game against the North Carolina Courage, in which Pickett and Joseph bump elbows, has recently gone viral.
Pickett, who is considered to be one of the best defenders in the U.S., advocates for children with similar experiences as her own with the Lucky Fin Project and is grateful for the chance to inspire them.
