Any Day Now…

I know I’ve been away for way too long. I started this blog as an effort to document my life as I grapple, struggle, succeed and fail in my life and journey with C5 Tetraplegia. I’m about a month and a half away from the three-year anniversary of my injury, but to be honest, it feels like I’ve been trapped, imprisoned by paralysis and pain for 10 years.

A couple of important things have been happening recently:

1) I returned to school at Bellevue college, and I’m taking an online class as a way of testing the waters to see if I can handle the work of going to school again. I want to pursue a Masters degree in counseling as my ultimate goal. So far I’m enjoying the process, but am unsurprised to find that homework…still…stinks.

2) I’m in the home stretch of the lawsuit I’m involved in. The jury trial starts in mid-September, and I’ll let you know how things went when it’s all over.

3) Even though I’m pretty sure I’ve not been the best leader, my role as College Director at my church has become very important to me. I’m learning a lot about my strengths and weaknesses, and doing my best to strengthen my weaknesses.

Right now my days are starting early, and ending late so I probably won’t be blogging as regularly as I would like until my legal issues have been settled, but I’m going to try. It helps to have an iPhone and iPad to document things, though.
