Hi Erica! I enjoyed reading your post and can totally relate! What you said about identifying the true challenge of the most impactful application of your JJ learnings resonates very much with me having dealt with my own rehabilitation from a pedestrian/auto accident as well as handling the most recent challenges in my life: golf and my job search! Can't wait to discuss more with you, my friend!

Aaaagh, Erica, I didn’t know the extent of your injury. What well thought prose for an unfortunate event. Repair! Don’t despair. I like your language of “changing angles”. And framing. Literally and figuratively. You have a home on the mats and that will always belong to you. Heal quickly and completely. Like they say, progress is not linear.

Thank you, Gina--for the kind words and the healing wishes. Hope to see you again on the mats before we both know it :)

Thank you, Thomas! The one upside of pain is that it tends to bring good writing!
