I had reconstructive pectoral surgery, I had a cervical neck fusion and a scope, and the scope was the toughest.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I struggled quite a long time with my backhand, which was one of my best weapons before my surgery.
I suppose I had these concerns but I really felt that I had to keep my scope very, very concentrated.
I'm ticking things off my list: I had a tumor removed; I had spinal surgery; I had four surgeries in three months.
I had to go for a mammogram - my first mammogram ever - and It was really scary and I didn't know what to expect.
I didn't have to undergo reconstructive surgery.
The amount of surgeries I've had are absolutely minimal compared to the reconstructive surgeries I've had. Probably 300.
I had to have shoulder reconstruction.
I had a lumpectomy. It wasn't that bad. Six and a half weeks of radiation.
My parents didn't give me any scope to feel sorry for myself. They were just like 'go play with your brother, go climb a tree, go fall off your motorbike, do whatever you want. Don't come crying to us when you get scratched. You've got prosthetic legs - that's very nice.'
Even when I was hurt with triple ACL reconstructive surgeries, there was a target on my back. I had to come back and fight through it.
