I sprained...

I sprained my right ankle in class Thursday night. I tore ligaments medially and laterally. I am seeing a doctor that Master Evins recommended who said he could cut my recovery time in half but that his treatments would be painful. The first treatment on Friday proved that he wasn't lying. He attempted to reconnect soft tissue and ligaments manually through the swelling by appplying intense pressure with his hands. I felt like screaming. But I'm determined to heal quickly and make it to the test. The only thing that will stop me is if Master Evins tells me I should wait until April to test. If that is his decision, then I'll honor it and continue training hard until then. Until I hear otherwise from Master Evins, I'm not giving up. Push-ups on my knees and sit-ups everyday until I am more mobile.
