Day 7

Well, it's been 1 week...
I went to my scheduled soccer game tonight to say HI to everyone. It was nice to be there. I could almost forget about my cast. I'm pretty bummed to be sidelined again. I'm trying to be positive. But every time I'm reminded about all the things that I'm missing out on, it hurts.
One of the things that hurt the most is missing out on the vacation that Jim and I planned. We were going to burning man; in just a few weeks. It was to be each of our first time there. Now, he's going and I'm not. It really hurts down deep. I'm going to miss out on a huge life experience that it won't be the same when we can go together. Jim keeps trying to convince me that I can go and it will be the same. It won't be the same. Crutches are a very draining situation.

Hi Julie, I just happened to notice your blog and wanted to send you some love. Sorry about the achilles. That's gotta suck. I totally feel your pain having torn my own achilles last spring in an arena football game. It's really interesting you're not going under the knife since it's so common for this particular injury. I've torn my acl as well and I must say an achilles rupture is a much more strenuous injury to recover from.

At any rate, how's the leg recovering? Hope you're enjoying your summer.

Hope we can keep in touch. Would love to hear about your non-surgical recovery.

1Luv,

MarcAnthony
