Yeah. Not at all. I mean, at that point I had a cast that covered my entire stomach all the way down to my foot. So it was a half of a body cast and I had a hospital bed in my living room. So we had to read, you know, with any child that's injured, you usually have to make some adjustments to how you're living. And so we had to make some major adjustments. I was homeschooled.

I had physical therapy. Once the cast, the cast had to come off in parts. That's how big it was. So You know, it was like having this part, the entire cast on for six weeks and then having a quarter of it removed around the ankle and then at the knee and then at the waist. And so it was one of those things where I probably had a cast for about five months on, but it was removed in parts.

And during that time, I can say that it definitely tested my relationship with my mom because I was going through a lot of pain and she was there with me while I was homeschooled and going to physical therapy. But it was one of those times where...

it really was, again, not only a turning point in me deciding around my life, but it was a turning point in solidifying a solid foundation between my mother and I. And it's not easy, as you say, you have a 13-year-old. When you get to pre-teens, it gets even harder emotionally, and then teens.

And so I think we went through all of the pre-teen, teen emotions when I was nine years old, because I was in the house with her. She would take me outside to get some sun. We lived in Miami, so we'd go in our backyard. And it was awful, because She'd have me laying out there and my cast was sweating and I would be annoyed by her.

And so we had a lot of the tough conversations early on and it really put us in a great place to become close friends. Obviously, she's my mom and we're family, but it's put us in a position even to this day to become the closest of friends.

It was almost as if you're acknowledging, you're witnessing everyone move about and you're static and you feel like you're not doing enough. Even as a young kid, you're not playing enough. You're not going to school. You know, you're just not doing enough. It put me in a position where I started feeling like, yeah, I had FOMO, fear of missing out. I was missing out on so much.
