My Journey From Freak Accident To Surfing
video description
December 2018 I got into a motorcycle accident, the results were; I dislocated and broke my left hip, ligaments on my left knee got so bad and also broke my left ankle. I got surgeries on hip and ankle but the knee I had to wear a knee brace. It has been seven months since the accident and still can't move my left foot. I am going through Therapy to learn to walk again, I still can't though, but I use a walker or crutches and they have been helping me a lot. I know I have to keep pushing and that is what I do, keep moving forward.
I am glad you are able to walk again, I am sure in the future I will be able to do the same.

This is very inspiring and relatable to me. About 5 years ago my knee exploded, too, as I was doing gymnastics (a double back off the high bar) and landed half on a mat. My LCL, ACL, and LCL completely tore and it took a year to recover. I am now coaching gymnastics and am able to do many things I used to against all odds. I appreciate videos like these and it reminds me how important it is to encourage others to persevere through tough times

I dislocated my knee for the first time like 6 years ago just by waving my arms around, and its happened randomly & constantly ever since & Im currently recovering from patellar tendon reconstruction/replacement surgery (Im 1 week post op. Im excited for the possibility of returning to even a semi-active life once I finish healing
