March was an incredible Brain Injury Awareness Month for me. Since my last update, I officially published this site, and the response has been wonderful. Having so many open, honest conversations with others about the importance of brain injury awareness has meant the world to me. A lot of people have been reaching out to ask how I’m actually doing, and it is such a massive blessing to honestly be able to tell them: I feel amazing. I have overcome a lot to be where I am today.

One of the biggest highlights of the month was going to a Brain Injury Awareness family event hosted by MidAmerica Rehabilitation Hospital—the very first place I stayed when my rehab journey began. My mom, sisters, brothers-in-law, and the nieces and nephews all came out to support it. While we were there, I was so blessed to run into one of my former occupational therapists. I instantly recognized her face, but my sister actually had to jump in and remind me of her name! It was such a joy to reconnect with Meredith.

Beyond the recovery milestones, the past few weeks have just been genuinely happy. I’ve been working on my overall diet and fitness, and I can really feel the positive impact it’s having on my day-to-day energy. Work has also been going fantastic, and I’ve felt very appreciated there lately.

On a more personal note, I’ve been connecting with an amazing person. Just having him always be there is definitely one of the things I look forward to every day. It helps so much. I really hope I can share more in future updates. Fingers crossed!

Everything finally feels like it’s moving forward in the best way possible. Thank you all for following along on this journey with me.
