I'm sitting here in my hotel room in San Francisco. Flew overnight from Orlando to make my appointment today with Dr. Bowers for my surgery evaluation. Nervous that something might go wrong, but then again I worry about everything. Got emotional on the flight over. It felt like a dry run for the big day in early February and I couldn't help but reflect on the winding path that led me here. The things I've gained and the things I've lost. Getting closer to my dream.
