Master Glover poses for a portrait in an extended-stay hotel room in Greece, N.Y., on Sept. 20, 2022. Glover was shot eight times on July 20, 2022, in Rochester, N.Y., and now needs to use a walker for an injury to his left leg. He spent 20 days in the hospital, where he says that he felt mistreated as if he were a throwaway case, "just another young black male with a gunshot wound." He is living at the hotel for peace and quiet while he is recovering. "I am still trying to figure that out," said Glover. "Obviously, for me to get shot eight times like I did, I know I definitely have to have a purpose because I'm still here. So hopefully one day God shows me that purpose, and I see it. I mean, right now, my purpose is just trying to heal and be there for my son."
