I can put week 1 in the books. For those who havent heard, I have a stress fracture in my navicular bone in my right foot. I am in a boot and on crutches for the next chapter of my life. Out of volleyball for the rest of the season, and basketball for now, hoping for the best with the chance to return for the end of my senior basketball season. Recovery is said to be about 3-4 months. Hearing the doctor break the news was definitely one of the hardest moments of my entire life, but with time to let it sink in I have realized that this injury and setback WILL have something good arise from it. It is the toughest form of mental training I could have ever imagined, but it is allowing me to view the life as an athlete with A TOTALLY new perspective. I have also realized the amount of support, love, and wisdom within the hearts of the people around me is unreal. I am so blessed by that. MOST IMPORTANTLY, I believe without question that God allowed this to happen to me for a reason, and I am patiently waiting for him to reveal his perfect answer to this by thanking him daily for the chance to one day PLAY, RUN, & BE AN ATHLETE AGAIN.
