9th Month Post-Concussion Update
I cannot believe it's been 9 months since my accident. In preparing to write about my progress I kept pondering on the number 9. What's striking to me is what this number means in terms of an ending before a beginning. For instance, a woman is pregnant for 9 months for a full-term pregnancy. In this time, she has to stretch, endure morning sickness, cravings, mood swings, and ultimately prepare for a new life. I have never given birth to a child, but I feel as if I'm preparing to give birth to something great. The past 9 months have been super challenging and I've had to accept an altered life and way of thinking to survive it. Just when I'm tired of going back and forth to doctors and therapists wanting to throw in the towel, God sends someone to encourage me to keep pushing. So, that's what I'm doing: pushing. I will push until my purpose manifests. A woman in labor needs encouragement because the pain is greater than what she has expect
