Yay for your progress!

Love your goals!

I know the feeling of wanting to show those naysayers up. You’ll do it.

I was told I would being using a cane to walk and never play hockey again after my leg incident.

The human body is an amazing, adaptable machine.

You’ll play soccer again, and you will be better then you were before!

Thanks for the update masch! I knew that threat would do the trick :slight_smile:

Sounds like your rehab is going great and your goals look good to me. I bet you’ll meet all those goals and probably will do so ahead of schedule :slight_smile:

Puerto Rico huh? That should be a great time. Ive never been before but heard it’s so much fun… Have you been before? Hopefully you’ll have sole cool pics to share once you get back.

Enjoy the shining star! (PR) I am requesting some vacay pics please.

Vaca Pics required…in various states of undress and inebriation of course.

vid would work also.

Atta girl! Kick ass and take names!

they mustn’t have realized who they were talking to - of course you will play soccer again!!

glad to hear your update about your progress. i still need to take little PT breaks when i wear my vibrams to stretch out my toes / arches. nice to hear you can walk up stairs a bit, sucks to not be very mobile. i do understand that it must be hard to read what other people are up to when you need to focus on your rehab. it nice to hear how it is going for you, though. hopefully will help out other people who have similar injury, too.

Awww, glad to hear you are doing well as can be.

Whenever I go on my walks, I go right past a fire station…it makes me think of you! :slight_smile:

You are a woman on a mission! I look forward to following and cheering as you knock out your goals.

You can go back to playing soccer post rehab, but be mindful that your leg will get tired and become unstable at first. I would suggest a brace for when that does happen if you want to finish out the game.

enjoy the beach, the sun and the drinks sexy mamasita!

goals are doable. you will play soccer. my crisco ball said so :wink:


Think Maschy’s doing some shots?

Checking in to say Fuck those people who say you can’t play soccer anymore. You can if you want.

Shawn Johnson’s making a good comeback from a torn meniscus and ACL. SHe injured herself skining in January of 2010. She’s competing in the National Championships this weekend.

It’s a long video, but maybe worth a watch if you want some inspiration. Bear in mind, this is not just a comeback from an injury, but a comeback from being out of the sport in a meaningful way since the olympics.

Aliya Mustafina, the reigning world champion in gymnastics, also tore her ACL and is also making a run at 2012.

x2 on this.

Athletes come back all the time from torn knee ligaments… Willis McGhee completely blew out his knee in the national championship game (seriously a hard video to watch… So gnarly. YouTube it lol) and he still got drafted in the first round and was playing running back in the NFL the next year and still is!

Don’t listen to the “haters”/doctors or whatever you wanna call em :wink:

It’s time for your weekly update

What’s up homie?


I made you a banana pudding to help rehab.

Maschy,

Fuck any doctor (not literally, unless it’s me) who says you can’t get back into soccer.

I have had 19 surgeries, died twice on an operating table, taken 18 months of rehab, and all it has done is now level the playing field for my opponents. My ER surgeon told me, that I would never be able to do anything more than swim or maybe ride a bike. I told him to fuck off, as I walked out of the room with my gown open in the back and my ass hanging out. I get to my doc and he tells me, “Max, I think this is God’s way of making it fair against your adversaries” LOL. He told me, that within a year, he expected me to be back as the brute savage he remembered me being.

The way I see it, I will always have this attitude of, “you mother fucker, you can stab, shoot, maim, and leave me for dead, but I will not be denied. You hear me mother fucker ! It will take me time, but every day I will get stronger, better, faster, in body/mind/spirit. The day I stop breathing is the day I stop training, stop screaming, and stop talking mad shit.” I am that kind of mother fucker, and you must view it in a similar manner. We heal STRONGER, because we get TOUGHER.

Just checking in on you. (the “Jan Brady of PW” just made me crack up).

Careful up there Humminbird.

^ Thanks big daddy! I got enough Tangueray to last me a few days :wink:

Seriously, though, NYC is good with the crazy - altho surprising rain is always a big problem for us. But I got all my supplies and I have a plan B to evacuate into deep Brooklyn to a friends house should there be need. Giddy-up!

While I’m hunkering down I’ll probably be checking in on y’alls and maybe even giving a little update on my progress (of which there’s been tons!) - yay!

Until then, stay safe everyone!!

Lots of love!
