Tahoma High School volleyball player Kim Reese-White was diagnosed in July with Wegener’s Granulomatosis, an incurable and deadly vasculitis disease affecting the lungs, kidneys and other organs. It causes certain blood vessels to become swollen and inflamed, ultimately making blood flow difficult. Doctors told Kim that playing volleyball for the Bears was out of the question for this season, potentially next season as well. Now, a little more than three months later, she is back on the court.
