There’s nothing more important in life than surrounding yourself with people who support and believe in you. When you question yourself, when you feel like you’re not capable of something, when you’re afraid to try, those are going to be the people who push you beyond your self-imposed limits.

When I got to this running clinic, I was feeling a little scared. I’ve been told before that I couldn't wear a blade on my left leg due to my level of amputation, so I knew there was a big chance I'd driven all that way to maybe not even have the chance to try it… but I was honestly more scared to try and fail.

But none of that wasn’t a problem, thanks to the incredible ottobock_northamerica team that made me feel confident and comfortable with the whole process. And thanks to _brelo , who not only took the risk of getting me to try the blade on my left leg and believed I was capable of doing so when most people up to that point doubted, but literally held my hand through the entire journey, guiding me, rooting for me, being supportive, and pushing me to try and do everything. I couldn’t have done it without you, _brelo .

So thank you to all the awesome people I’ve met at the clinic, for all the support and for making moments like these happen. ♥️
