“Thank You…”

First Of All… Thank You… Thank All Of You… Whether It Was Face To Face… Or Through A Phone Call… Or Through A Text… Or Through A Comment On Social Media… Or Making & Bringing Us Dinner!!! Love You Mom… His Road Isn’t Over… But… After A Very Long Day… He Was All Smiles… Then… Knocked Out… As Did His Momma… Today Reminded Me Of Something… And Trust Me… I Ain’t Looking For Any Praise… But… The Attention To Detail That Ryker’s Doctors & Nurses Put Into Him… Is Amazing… That’s It… It’s Freakin’ Amazing… They Don’t Just “Go In Without A Plan & Say… F–K It… Let’s See What Happens?!?!” Besides Worrying About My Son… Everytime I See These Amazing Human Beings Do Their Job… It Makes Me Think About My Profession… I Say This All The Time… “Every Gym Is Different… Every Coach Is Different… You Just Gotta Find Your Own Fit/Style…” Which Is True!!! But… You Also Have To Find The Gym… The Coach… That Is Not Only Benefit Your Own Fit/Style… But Make Sure & Keep You Moving Safely & Correctly… “Long Term Health & Fitness…” What Movement… What MODification… Is Going To Help You In The Long Run?!?! What Procedure… What Surgery… Is Going To Help Ryker In The Long Run?!?! During The “Huddle Up”… Every Class Is Different… Some Classes… We Can Run Through The WhiteBoard Fast!!! Other Classes… We Have “OGs”… Some Athletes Who Have Been Around For A Short While… Some Athletes Who Have Been Gone For Months & Just Coming Back… And Some “Newbies”… Another Thing I Always Say… “If You Have Any Questions… ASK!!!” Hence Why I Say… “Any Questions?!?!” Whether It’s Weight Changes… Movements… MODs… As The Dr. & Nurses Were Explaining What Was Going On Pre & Post OP… I HAD NO F’N CLUE!!! I Kept Looking Over @ Danielley & Just Praying That She Could Explain It To Me Later When Nobody Was Around… Which Was Wrong Of Me… Now… This Is Not Talking Down On Danielley… Because I Know She Knew Exactly What They Were Talking About… But… If She Didn’t… It Would Be The Equivalent Of Me Explaining The WOD… Then You Turning To Your Friend… Who Also Has No Clue Of What’s Going On… And Asking… “So… What Do We Do?!?! I Know It’s A Long Rant… But Basically… I See On A More Than I’d Like To Constant Basis Of How Much Ryker’s Doctors & Nurses Put Into Him… And I Hope That All Of You Feel The Same Way About Me… Not Only Me… But All Of Our Coaches… Ryker Has A Team Of Doctors & Nurses… I Can Tell That Each Doctor & Nurse Has So Much Trust In Each Other… They May Do Things Slightly Different Than One Another… But It’s Always The Right Way… So Thank You Again To Chad… Heidi… Rick… B-Ri… And Danielley For Being Amazing Coaches & Helping My Family Out @ A Moments Notice… And Thank All Of You For Understanding & Support My Family During This Time… RainCross Strong… ************************************************************ ALRIGHT… HERE WE GO!!! 8:45AM: Saturday Sweat Sesh 131!!! ************************************************************ 3…2…1…GO!!!
