My book/due out by Christmas

Well, my book on my accident recovery is scheduled and on track to be out and released by Christmas. I have been working with the editor, who has been sending my book back for my revisions, of her part of the work. End scheduled date for editing, will be as of now Halloween. Her and her husband own a publishing company as well, therefore sticking with them throughout publishing process. In my book, I cover everything from accident, time of accident what did previously, to laid up at the hospital as well as inpatient rehab, then followed up by outpatient rehab institute now ability KC. Then all of that was followed by 6.5 years with Minds Matter, all of which I worked on recovery from my spinal cord injury stuff along with brain injury stuff. I also cover ibogaine treatment, as well as lots of life lived throughout outside of therapy. Lots of things that did not have anything to do with therapy at all. There were many times, I was going on flights again even though had to have another pilot on board as well as many dates. But that was really the only social interaction really had outside of therapist and doctors. Which obviously that gets frustrating, because it does not place you want to be, and most the time when there in pain. These were some real hard times but grinding on forward and not falling into old traps I cover in my book as well.

As far as my other injuries, all my injuries were broken back vertebra T8,10,12 with an incomplete spinal tear at 12. Collapsed lung, road rash, broken pelvis, arm, ribs both sides, Torn ACL, Mencius and hamstring as well as brain injury on my frontal and temporal lobe. I have had 4 back surgeries, leaving a scar running between my shoulder blades to my tail bone area and has had 50 staples in after last surgery was opened up same amount open previous times as well, an arm surgery, and one knee surgery. Knee surgery was a really difficult recovery from.

Here are pictures from this past week, last weekend saddled Pablo, going to ease him back in before riding again. Other pictures are random pictures of going through life living progressively after spinal cord injury and brain injury recovery. One picture is one my front porch, the other in my office is in corner of house. Really y'all, the air hitting my face feels fresh again, which makes me feel good because that's when goodness happens and God is with at all times.

Here are some pictures of the land clearing business I quickly threw together after the loss of my dad and was needing to get some more income coming in. All the equipment's mine, here was out on business jobs, well to be exact the saw in picture was a rental, own one like that but did not at that time. Really was struggling along as a business especially with the economy, kept and keeping all the equipment for personal use. But the business getting out of.

Here is showing people a little through my life and the writing process really, I have been doing. Here is a picture of my writing desk keep a statue of Mary on there; the other picture was going out to lunch at a fly in Resterraunt and the other picture is cruising home with my mom.

My animals mean a lot to me y'all, have baby girl Dally who is 14 she's the Australian Shepard, then other baby girl Peyton she's 3, than baby boy Doc he's 8. My horses on the right, I will not mention their ages now because pains me to much that that many year passed by after my accident.

Me in my writing area, as well in kitchen of house grabbing coffee for my thermos for the writing area. Really showing what my workspace used to look like after my accident to what it looks like now.

Also, hopefully everyone is ready for the holidays! I am putting up a small tree in my office area, I know the real meanings the nativity set but all I'm saying is decorating. I am extremely excited, that book number one will be out around the Christmas time, time frame.

Much appreciate y'all checking out my blog!

Take care y'all
