For the past 3.5 years, I've felt like I couldn't get my left leg to work how I wanted it to. This past month I finally got some answers. It may not have been what I wanted to hear, but it's certainly nice to see the light at the end of the tunnel.

It was incredibly frustrating to start competing at the top level and then suddenly have it taken away for some unknown reason that just kept dragging out, but I'm really proud of how I handled it. When I was younger, one bad thing would lead to a negative spiral. Life asked me to grow and I went with it. Now, I can feel things like pain, sadness, and frustration, while still keeping myself open to all the love and beauty around me.

Hoping you create love in these last moments of 2022 and follow what brings you joy in 2023.
