When I was a kid I was a very good athlete. In Football I was a running back on Offense, a Linebacker on defense. I had fun playing Football, and Baseball. I could play any position and was one of the best hitters on the team, but when I was thirteen I fell out of a tree and BRUISED MY Brain Stem.
I was in a coma for five & a half weeks then I lost every muscle in my body. Still trying to get back, it changed my life. I had to relearn everything.
Anyway I am now 41 years old wishing I had another chance, getting there slowly...
