Unleash the Warrior Within
I thought this deserved it’s own post.
Recently, my step-brother Robert broke his neck while swimming. Since he was paralyzed, he drowned, luckily, a neighbor’s friend was over who performed cpr and saved Robert’s life. Robert can’t move his legs or fingers yet, but has been making so much progress from where he was, and has feeling everywhere. The doctors are expecting lots of progress. He has been in very high spirits and has been working very hard and everyone is very proud of him.
I’m not sure who it was, but wristbands similar to livestrong bracelets to support Robert have been handed out. They are blue and say “Unleash the Warrior Within” on the outside, and his name and football number on the inside. The first time I ever wore it I had to run a little more than four miles, which is the farthest I’ve ever gone before (not that far, but still). I was hoping to go at least half-way without stopping. I think that the bracelet must be good luck and very motivational, because I went the whole way without stopping once. I hope that this is the same for Robert and everyone else, that they feel motivated and have a little luck on their side when they need it most.
