The story of how a simple fall turned into a 10-hour surgery and a fight to save my leg.

After a severed artery and a terrifying drug-resistant infection, my recovery journey was anything but ordinary. This story covers the harsh reality of medical trauma and how I navigated the first eight months of a very long road back to health.

This is not a polished story of recovery told from the other side. It's about what it feels like to live inside the mess of it. The uncertainty, frustration, humor, and unexpected moments of healing.
