Surfer's Myelopathy Foundation!!!
I just want to update you that the Surfer's Myelopathy Awareness website has launched (a little while ago)!!! Check out the site whenever you get a chance:
http://smawareness.org/
Thank you to Ivette, Pegah, Lawrence and Katie for all of your hard work and dedication! I am excited to what the organization will be able to do for Surfer's Myelopathy victims now and in the future... Hopefully enough awareness will be raised where there won't be as many or as damaging instances in the future...
2 years...
Since the 1 year anniversary, I've only had 2 posts :(
I'm sorry I haven't updated this as frequently as I'd like.
Some points of interest...
-Went to Costa Rica for work... (Pura vida!)
-Taught training in the Bahamas... (Yah mon!) Not letting this injury slow me down...
-Still planning for the wedding (September 26, 2009) and falling more and more in love with Ivette...
-Still fighting hard every day to get better...
-Started using leg braces that go to my knee and a walker to get from point A to point B on 2 feet, sort of "walking" but very exciting!...
-Have seen some slight improvements, very slow, very slight, but improvements nonetheless :)
Hopefully I can put more pics/details up, but I just wanted to post today to take in another moment of silence for the 2 year anniversary since my life and those around me was changed.
Thank you for all of your love, support and prayers. Know that I am fighting, fighting, fighting. It hasn't been easy, but I know it'll all be worth it.
Si se puede. I will overcome.
