Yes .. that is something to be grateful for.

well you seem strong and determined ..that makes all the difference

The side effects suck but I'm still breathing

I used to be an athlete up until I got hurt on the job

Not so much anymore

What happened?

Hurt on the job and it was my day off but I was always on call as management

you must of been hurt pretty bad

Fractured back

In multiples locations

wow.. did you fall off of something?

No I got hit with a piece of flying equipment

oh my goodness

I cannot imagine

so you have come a long way

I walked away and thought okay I'm not that bad...then I got up the next day and could not move my legs

Oh my word you walked away???

So began my journey about disabilities

How long ago was this?

2011 in Alaska

That is incredible.. that you couldn't move your looks.. That must of been terrifying.

wow not too long ago

*LEGS

not looks lol

I was more frustrated than anything

I was a serious outdoorsman

I bet you were..wow. You must of gone thru so much emotionally and mentally . during all this healing process.

What types of things did you do ... fish... climb.. hike?

My being pissed off lasted a year...then I grew up

That is understandable... you are human

Did you stay in Alaska for a while.. after that?

I spent my time in the wilds of Alaska living in a remote village doing a hunting/fishing to live

Oh that is amazing.

I have one acre of land with a cabin on the south end of Kodiak island...I want to go back

You walk with brown bears, you can walk with anyone

You will.

Brown bears you say? lol

Yes

🐻

so you must
