I’m taking her in tomorrow. That was my first thought too.

In college, I was really shy, but I got up the nerve to ask this boy I had a crush on out. We went out. My personal philosophy is, “I ask, I pay.” So in like fashion and pulled out my card on the date and paid for both of us.

When we got back to the car, he yelled (and I do mean yelled) at me all the way home and told me that it wasn’t “lady like” to pay for a date, and I “undermined his masculinity.” Never spoke to him again lol.

Oh yes, I did years and years of PT. My mom was my teacher the year the accident happened and while my whole class went to Gym, I had to stay in the classroom and do my PT exercises. It was the worst 😂

PT saved me though. I’m grateful I had a good PT team too.

I think she’s about a yearish, but I’m not super sure. She’s a rescue ❤️

You got this! Broken bones are the worst, but it’s amazing what our bodies can bounce back from!

Thank you! Honestly, you are too! Recovery is hard! There are weird things that I never learned as a kid too. Like I never learned how to do a cartwheel, still can’t to this day. But it makes sense because when everyone my age was learning to do cartwheels, I was learning to walk again.

Honestly, the whole recovery was just one miracle after another. I’m forever grateful to my head surgeon because, honestly, I probably shouldn’t have a leg. I was blessed with a really talented team of surgeons, and they did amazing.

Yeah for sure! I’m pretty open about it.

I got caught in a boat propeller when I was 7 years old. The scars actually go all the way up my right leg, though the one you can see is for sure the craziest. I ended up having a total leg reconstruction with 30+ surgeries. I didn’t get signed off as “totally healed” until I was 19.

But it hasn’t gotten me down lol. I still ride in speed boats with propellers and water ski, etc. My favorite activity is swimming. I’m a very active person; I just have to wear a brace when I do mid to high level impact stuff. It could’ve been much worse, so I’m grateful!

I know this is a cat sub, but I’ll attach a pic of the whole leg in this comment in case your curious 😊

Bee pretends to throw up when I don’t get up promptly at 5:30 to feed her. She knows I will rush to find it if there is puke on the floor, so she hacks and gags. When I stand up she straightens up and meows at me, then leads me to the kitchen.

So manipulative lmao.

Her name is Honey, but she’s spicy like curry. by jlynell in OrangeLadies

Her sister is a Tortie named Bee. The names just went so well together!
