hi,
i am ericka. the first year is hard but you have to remember that life will alway's put giant rocks in your path what you choose to do about the rocks is what makes life . if it wasn't your injury it might have been something else . decide what changes you are willing to make and what you do not what to change. then adjust your path .i know that sounds weird but it is life.i just think this is something that happened to me it is not something i caused to happen. just decided what means the most to you. do that and put the rest aside,you could always get better and go back to it or you can go for what you want now and suffer through it. only you can make that decision.it does get
easier to handle but you have to want it to get easier.what i mean is it is real easy to let this eat you alive. you have to tell yourself i will not let this kill me.(inside) your life won't ever be the same but it is your life. hope that help's.
be well ericka
