Shane Bracken, 10, is a hockey player who hasn’t let his battle with autism prevent him from playing the game. Campbell Donovan, 8, also plays hockey and is an avid hockey fan -- his favorite pastime is watching classic NHL games on television every morning. Donovan was born prematurely and is developmentally disabled.
