It's just bringing it out.

But, um, I, I mean, I wanted to be a massage therapist, travel the world.

I'll tell you what I want to, I wanted to travel the world.

I wanted to snowboard.

and now that is exactly what i'm doing just in a completely different way than i ever expected without the massage yeah yeah now i get massages which is even better actually but um but you know i i think we all want to make a difference in the world somehow like we all have a drive to actually just

to do something and live a fulfilling life and hopefully positively affect people.

And now I'm doing that because of what I went through.

You know, I, um, I used to want to move to LA out here because I thought I want to act and I want to do all this stuff.

But I think what I was craving was I just, I just wanted to,

do something and I guess it's I think some of it is being recognized for something you know I think maybe everybody feels that and when I was younger I used to think it's oh be on TV and now I realize no it's actually connecting with people like that's what that's what I want you're sharing this love and encouragement and positivity and whatever that energy is between people that's I think something that we all

want, maybe without knowing it.

And once you are able to do that, like we're able to do through speaking, um, you're like, that's what it is.

So fulfilling.

Right above the ankles.

Yes.

Way harder.

Yes, below the knee is a blessing.

Yeah.

Yeah, so then I remember the day the doctor came in and said, basically he said, if we don't amputate here, and he pointed to my ankles, then he said, we'll have to amputate up here next week.

And he pointed to my knees.
