Why Is This Such A Roller Coaster? - ACL Journey -

Week 2 of my recovery journey and the highs and lows continue. Big advances in terms of movement and being able to push myself. I celebrated my 29th birthday and was also able to jam with my band. Trying to keep on the bright side and stay positive. Thanks for everyone helping me along the way and those watching from here. It means the world. One love

In November 2023 I was fighting for Team USA in Paralympic Judo in Santiago, Chile. This was the ParaPan American Games. It happens once every 4 years and is a big qualifier for the Paralympics. In the match that would award me a bronze medal it happened... I planted my foot and completely torn my right ACL. This injury ended my Road to Paris 2024. I was heartbroken but I am here to share my journey for myself and for others going through anything similar. It's a long road but I know I got this. Thanks for following along on the journey.

Despite a lifetime of adversity, a blind high school wrestler attempts to win a New Jersey State Championship before the end of his senior year. Anthony Ferraro has always tried to live a normal life. As he entered junior high, Anthony decided to try his luck at wrestling. After a dismal first season, he begged his father to enroll him in a wrestling club. His father obliged and found a coach willing to teach a blind kid to wrestle. The following year, despite his obvious disadvantage, Anthony went 24-1. Three years later, Anthony has set a number of goals for himself; to become the first three-time District Champ in his school's history, break the school record for most wins, and become the first blind state champion in New Jersey wrestling history. The question is, does he have a shot in the dark?

I love hearing youre doing better!! It's a huge mental game (more than physical game in a lot of ways)!! I never had an injury/surgery like this myself, but my patients tend to find when they get past that first two months, is where you really start feeling that things are coming along. I always remind ALL my patients that its those small goals that make those big goals. Celebrate those small accomplishments!! You will make it there, dude, no doubt!! One love!
