About Me

Working Through Injury

When I was in high school, I was involved in just about every sport imaginable. After I finished up football practice, I headed over the basketball court to work on my shot. However, an accident changed my plans to become a professional athlete. I had been driving home with some friends, and a drunk driver smashed into our car. I had to endure about two years of speech therapy and rehabilitation just to walk and talk again. However, I know that people are stronger than they seem, and that you can overcome just about anything. I hope that as you read through the contents of my blog that you will be inspired to keep working on your recovery.
