Progress Not Perfection

[Inner Surfer Girl 12,015]

I am back.

I was offline most of last week because I was in the mountains of eastern Kentucky attending a writing workshop. It was an awesome experience and not something I could have even attempted a year ago (I was sleeved April 20, 2015).

After over a year with my sleeve, I am over half-way to goal. Last week showed me how far I have progressed and also how much further I still have to go. It was a tiring week but I made it. One of my big concerns was my endurance. In addition, the physical accommodations were not exactly 21st century ADA compliant or bariatric friendly. I still survived.

I was able to participate in almost everything with two major exceptions. I am looking forward to attending next year so that I can do the things I was physically unable to do this summer and more.

Welcome back and congrats!

It's great when we have those ah ha moments that remind us how far we've come.

Way to go! I am so glad you were able to do this and could participate in almost everything! This is a major NSV for you!
