Mile Marker 5,655:
When the going gets tough, the tough get small.
At least I do anyway.
On my morning walks -- which have been a struggle lately -- I focus on bricks.
Why bricks?
My road came to an unexpected halt on November 9, 2010.
On that day, I was bicycling to work when a garbage truck drove into a Philadelphia bike lane. I was in that bike lane.
A team of trauma surgeons saved my life, but they had to amputate my left leg above the knee. The accident changed my body and health forever.
The journey of a thousand miles begins with one step.
These words started me on my journey to walk again. Over time, they became a way of life.
I am a person with ability and disability. I travel in the space between. These are my postcards.
