Pre-injury I was mostly a hiker and biker with some swimming this was pre-2002. I tried hiking and couldn't because my right leg would go numb, after my first surgery I could no longer bike because I had lost my proprioception. So instead of hiking I would go on scenic drives, at least I could still swim a little. Finally I had found an agency that would help me get the custom made trike that I needed to become more active again.
I was working on all the paper work will workers' comp. was dragging its feet on approving me for ADR surgery. I hadn't got all the measurements yet when finally workers' comp. called and I was approved. My surgery was scheduled for Aug. 2, 2007. So now I am on the long road to recovery.
