Every time I went into the clinic, I felt like the staff really cared about me. I just had the best experience I could possibly have while going through such a difficult process.

In January of 2023, I was working on a custom cutting board and was using a woodworking planer. I put the cutting board through the planer to smooth it out when the board kicked back and severely bent back the thumb on my right hand. Immediately after this happened, there wasn’t too much pain, but I looked at my thumb and knew something wasn’t right.

I was playing in our homecoming game and we were in the 2nd quarter. During the play, there wasn’t a flag thrown so we kept playing. I was running down the field and I got hit in the legs up top. My left leg snapped all the way around. I broke my tibia and fibula.

It was Friday, October 14 and we were playing our homecoming football game against Berry. We were up 42-10 and I went for the interception on the 12 yard line. I got the interception and ran about 4-5 yards. I was tackled and when I came down, I felt a snap in my leg.
