Emotional Rollercoaster

Well, to anyone who has set out on the Spinal Cord Injury recovery journey and/or the Traumatic Brain Injury recovery journey knows how brutal this journey gets at times. Sometimes its all one can do to keep composed and press on into the next day. To much distractions, oftentimes from what one of the injury’s took away and had me missing out on, it was hard pressing on some days.

The hardest part of recovery one of them if greif over what is lost, what can no longer do, what no longer happens to be in the deck of cards of things to do. For me, that was team roping again and flying getting medical back to be only pilot onboard again. This has been quite the journey on recovery from both of those injuries. Either one of those are life altering.

Y’all to be real and honest again with y’all; really its a complete miracle I do have all the range have and mobility have now after all my injuries. The two major injuries were Spinal Cord and Brain Injury, those were the life altering ones that took flying and team roping. Now, there has been many times throughout my accident recovery where living with these injuries has made things extremely hard and difficult.

Daily things that are thrown off and harder, things wouldn’t even of thought of until a spinal cord injury or traumatic brain injury was all the inside things that get thrown off with those.

I was very blessed my eyes were not effected, as far as I know they were not effected and I still have 20/15 eyesight. I was blessed and it was a miracle my eyes were not effected. That could’ve easily happened to me in my accident. I also was blessed to not loose any limbs in my accident, or anything like that.

Many times, looking back say man wouldn’t of it’d been nice if my accident wouldn’t of happened. But so goes life seriously y’all, so many things have been all over the place; times like these when you are stuck in disarray and you are struggling with trust. Struggling with trust, because I have personally been burned quite a bit as well have some reason to not trust.

Things being here and now and progressing forward has been what i have been about really y’all this whole time. My accident, yes took flying career and team roping and advancing farther and so forth, but didn’t mean i could not realign my life in a different direction.

When life throws curves have to move with them to keep dodging them and moving forward. Nature was a big piece on helping me out lots of times, being outside was huge as well as being around animals.

Thank y’all take care, God Bless Glory to God.
