Anyone that’s been in my life for the past year knows what a ride it’s been. To sum it up for those who may not know, it’s been a rollercoaster. Just six months ago I was essentially bed ridden. After nearly ten brain surgeries, I was thirty pounds underweight, bed ridden, eating through a tube, and struggling to simply walk and bathe myself. I wasn’t going to let that stop me.
That brings me to today, six months later. With unwavering faith, determination, and a tiny bit of delusion, I completed a 5k. In the grand scheme of things it may not seem like a lot, but those 3.1 miles are a lot more to me than just a number. They’re a reminder of how far I have come. If you would have told me six months ago that I’d be where I’m at today I’d call you crazy.
I’m not exactly known to be a vulnerable or emotional person, but in this case I hope to use it for the greater good. I hope that sharing my story may inspire others and help many realize what true strength they have. Whatever you do, do not give up.
