Kelley Gulledge
Retired Baseball Player/Johnson & Johnson Rare Disease
From Texas, drafted out of high school and opted to go to college. Drafted again my junior year of college and began 12 professional baseball career. Second year of pro ball I tried crack cocaine for the first time and became addicted. Lasted for 6 years and then decided to get sober. Got to play for another 6 years once I got sober. Retired in 2012 and was diagnosed with MS in 2013. I chose an alternative route to treat my disease and as of today I have no symptoms and am healthier and in better shape than when I was playing. Obviously there is a lot more to this story, but keeping it really brief. I have been married since 2013, have one son and we live in Alabama. I currently work for Johnson & Johnson helping neurologists diagnose and treat myasthenia gravis.
