Unbelievable! It’s hard to think that it’s been a full year since my knee surgeries. I’ve spent a few moments today re-reading some of my first posts. It’s was very humbling.
Orginally I started this blog as an outlet to vent through the process. But what ended up happening was far more than I could imagine.
People connected to share their own personal stories.
Parents found information for their kids.
And people stepped in to encourage, support and advise others, which, once again, proved that no one is along on this journey; we have all feel the same pains and triumph through gains together.
It’s incredible and I thank everyone who has read this blog, commented on this blog and connected on this blog. This is all for you. My ACL journey is the journey of us all. As I reach this day, which signifies a year of progress, I plan to post less frequently since my goal was to document for a year. (And now I’m onto other things, like training for my first triathlon.) But I will continue to approve comments and reply to them.
So I wish you all the best and continued success in your own personal endeavors. Keep learning, keep moving and never take the simple things in life for granted.
Until next time … yes knee can!
Awesoooooooooooooooooooooooome. Good luck to you. Thanks for everything.

14 weeks out and kicking butt
Thanks, Amy! Keep on kickin’ some serious butt
hey yesskneecan – I’d be willing to take over the blog for you, or make guest posts if you’d like?
I think, given the number of posts and comments form people, this is a pretty important site in giving people hope. I’m a blogger myself and work in online media and already know wordpress so it’d be pretty easy.
Email me at: itsgameday@gmail.com or mike_duquet@hotmail.com and let me know if you’re interested
Mike, you just made my day! I’m pretty excited that people have remained active on the site; it gives me encouragement to keep posting, but yes, I am open to your ideas. Maybe we can start tag-teaming some posts? I’ll e-mail you. Thanks again!
Way to go! Good luck with the triathlon, you will be great. I have enjoyed this blog so much. I would love for it to continue in someway. I had a dr appt today and just had a bad emotional day and my husband suggested I go to the blog to share with others who are going through the same thing. Mike I would enjoy keeping the communication up with fellow rehabers.
Triathlon wow Thats amazing Amy keep inspiring damn I got a fire under my ass now. Im 9 weeks in acl and meniscus torn.
