After months of tedious rehabilitation for my knees we have come to the conclusion that surgery is the next step. I’m bummed that I couldn’t heal them with less invasive treatment but excited to work my tail off way towards pain free walking and running again! So today I’m off to Colorado with the support of my husband and family to get this healing party started!! â¤ï¸ðŸ’ªðŸ¼â¤ï¸ðŸ’ªðŸ¼ If there is anything I know for sure, a setback is only a setup for a comeback. Never take your health for granted. Please send positive healing vibes my way! ðŸ’‹ðŸ’‹
