I went to Seattle for my grandma's memorial service. It was the first time flying without any assistance, by myself and pulling luggage and Lucy with me. I am able to walk more and more and it feels really good. I also did my first hike! I thought it was going to be a short, …
In a nutshell, life has changed for me. I settled my work comp case and can now write more about what I'm going through with my cervical spine and surrounding areas. I had to resign my job to settle the case. My relationship ended. I moved out of the apartment I was living the past …
On my last PT session of the week, my PT said I could wean down to only one day for my hip and one day for my shoulder. We joked that we are slowly starting the break up process! I'm completely fine with this type of break up and actually quite stoked. Sorry Jeff! So …
This weekend we went to J Tree for some friends' birthday celebrations. I have never been and was stoked to hear they got an air bnb and invited us out there. If we were camping, I wouldn't be able to go, so this was perfect! It was a good and chill weekend. The rental was …

Merry Christmas LH readers! I hope you had a happy, safe and family filled holiday. Much love to you all!
Today was my first day in a long time that I didn't have any appointments. I decided to stay in my pajamas all day, listen to Christmas music, finish wrapping some presents and bake a gingerbread cake! It was exactly what the doctor ordered! I wish you all a Merry Christmas and I hope you …
I went to Seattle for about six days for my grandma's 90th birthday! We didn't tell her I was coming because we didn't know if I'd be able to make it. Chris wouldn't come and I asked to see if any friend's would want to come with but nothing panned out. So....I traveled alone for …
Happy Thanksgiving Everyone! Due to not being in Hawaii, I spent the day with family in OC. It was a long day and it exhausted me with some pain from being out and active all day. However, I was thankful to spend the time getting to hang with my mom for a bit longer. She …
