After losing my leg it was very common for me to say “it’s not that I can’t do certain things anymore, it’s just that I will be doing them differently now”. Unfortunately though, doing things differently usually meant the activity would not quite be as enjoyable.
Prior to my car accident I was really into cycling and freestyle bmx but I haven’t done much cycling at all since my accident due to it not being as enjoyable. After riding a stationary bike for the first time I immediately knew that this is something I would be bringing back into my life.
