Short story of my ski accident on 2-15-14
Annual Family ski trip in Utah. I am a seasoned skier, black diamonds and all.
Part of the trail was marked with snow and off I go. Literally off a bridge 25+ feet,
fell on a road. Spent 5 weeks in a Utah hospital with 5 surgeries. Then flew to
Shock Trauma Baltimore, MD for 8 weeks. Lots of rehab, more surgeries and still
healing 11 months later.

Like Katy said, I was speechless. I was checking on you now, how things are going, and what is you goal?
