Faith

I know that I previously spoke ill will of the facility I live in, but through God, He has helped me realize that this is a good place for me to be. 

I’m not quite the beast I used to be, but I’m close. I used to bench 240. I’m at 190 now. That is okay for now. I noticed that my legs got really weak because I was in the coma for so long. I know my muscles atrophied because when I woke up I couldn’t even walk. That could also be because I broke my ankles and my hips. You can just imagine… I landed straight down on my feet causing a tidal wave effect to move up through my body. The impact damaged my whole body.

​
During the first part of my recovery, there was no way that I could do what I am doing now in my kickboxing. I’m doing a lot of exercises for my legs to get them stronger. I used to run a mile every day before work. I would like to continue to do that… maybe longer! Now I am walking more than that distance. For now, I am trying to get stronger. For every lap I do, I also do ten push ups. 

I use my calendar as a reminder of what to work on that day and to keep myself accountable. I have a TBI so I have a tendency to forget. Keeping it on the calendar helps me not forget.
I have a lot more now to be thankful for. The only thing that I keep coming back to is my health. Also, with my faith, all things are possible through Him.​
