That happened to be my one year hipaversary from my LPAO. That appointment was scheduled a couple months in …

Tea Party Thank You

There are some women in my life who really stepped up for me during my surgeries and recoveries. I mean really went above and beyond. My best friend came down after each hip to help care for me. She had her husband switch his work schedule so he had multiple days off in a row …

Coming full circle... I truly love full circle moments. And last night was a big one for me. In February 2017, when I was bedridden after my neck and right hip surgery, I made two big goals for after recovery. As many of you know, goal #1 was a trip to Portugal and Morocco. I completed …

Ever since getting back from my road trip, I have been so exhausted. My body did better than expected for sleeping on an air mattress for a week and with the long drives, but man, it all wiped me out. I was talking about this with my physical therapist. I'm kind of surprised that the …

Fishing

I met a friend when I was traveling in Fiji, like six years ago and he happened to be from San Diego as well. We've kept in contact and been buddies ever since. He owns a fishing boat and goes fishing all the time. He was tracking my surgeries and recoveries and told me that …
