January 2016 looks very different than most “where were you” trends.
Brain surgery. A stroke. Losing movement on my right side.
Being transported 260 miles.
A month in rehab.
I couldn’t move my arm, my fingers, my toes, or even the right side of my face.
These photos are hard to look at. But they matter.
Healing didn’t happen all at once. It still doesn’t.
But this is part of my story. And I’m not afraid to tell it.
If this helps someone feel less alone, that’s enough.✨
