I have always had a positive and funny attitude about this whole situation that happened in the past years, but the reality is that there are still many things I miss that I would do anything to get back. I miss getting in the car all sweaty after a long hard basketball practice and feeling of refreshment of laying on my carpet when I got home, (if ykyk). I miss being able to walk in downtown Cedarburg with my friends without falling behind, I miss being able to run back from the high school after a football game and get that wave of refreshment from the breeze, I miss jumping off a boat to get ready to tube with my cousins, and I miss being able to go to fun outings with my friends without feeling guilty for some of them staying back with me because I couldn’t go on a ride. All the amazing things I took for granted when now I realize I would do anything to relive those memories. The worst part is knowing that I’ll never be able to do any of those things again. Reliving those amazing memories is the only thing I have left, are slowly fading as reality sets in.
