A Journey Through Hip Surgery, MRSA, and Healing
“Over three days, my recovery journey unfolded in a blend of playful moments with family, mindful gym sessions, and introspective reflections. From Saturday’s pancake breakfasts and fireside reading to Monday’s 140-mile motorcycle ride, these moments reminded me that healing isn’t just about the body—it’s about finding balance, connection, and joy along the way.”
Day 99 of my recovery journey brought a wave of reflection as I revisited the activities that led up to a sudden resurgence of pain. From my first post-surgery motorcycle rides to a rigorous physical therapy session, I examine the fine line between progress and overuse, and how recording my thoughts helps me find acceptance and clarity.
A month filled with both breakthroughs and setbacks, this recap explores my journey from September 30th to October 28th, where I navigated gradual gains in mobility, faced physical challenges, and learned to balance my eagerness with the patience needed for true healing.
