I know its been a long while since I posted anything.
Well to be honest I haven't been skating since June - busy with work (health issues) and can't afford to skate or hire coach which is very hard to deal with....but as many have told me "the ice will be there when you are ready to come back"
I have sustained a shoulder injury (non-skating related) that has prevented me from skating. Doctors say that most likely will need surgery and physical therapy. Its is recommended that I stay off the ice to reduce any injury to my shoulder. Really I mostly scared to fall on the ice and land on my right side (shoulder) but I am really considering to just to and skate around the rink to let the cold wind hit my face :)
I've tried to do some off ice at home but really its too painful, for example: when I do a simple loop jump, just by using my set and take off position, my shoulder is severe pain - so now that is a NO for me. I did try to get on my spinner and the same thing, using my shoulder and right arm is painful as well.
SUCH AS LIFE......sucks :( I am going bunkers not being able to skate. :(
This definitely puts a damper on my goals for next year. Keep a positive outlook that after my surgery I can recuperate and just try and works slowing towards my skating. Thank you every one for keeping in touch and pray for me that all goes well.
Ice will be there waiting for me!!
I'm so sorry that you're having a rough year. I hope you can get your surgery soon so that you can get on the road to recovery and back on the ice. The ice will be waiting for you whenever you're ready!

Thank you so much for being such a good fan!! I do enjoy all comments, since I am not skating I don't have much to talk about.
DeleteI have to get my insurance taken care of for the process and surgery. I hope that it wont take so long the recovery, because I really want to skate and finish my goals. "ice will always be there"
