hello my name is Curtis Mackall and i go to eastpalenstine high school in ohio and i play for our high schools basketball team, so one day at practice we where doing our one on one drills like we always do, well i had the ball and was driving to the basket and i stepped on my teamates foot on the way to the basket and my knee dislocated and when it dislocated it tore my acl and miniscus. well i didnt want to believe that it was torn so i went to the doctors and got an mri and it said that it was torn and that i needed surgery.

well of coarse i was heart broken the season just started and there i was having to get surgery and miss the whole season, so i didnt believe that it was torn i ignored the doctor and went ahead and got a second opinion and guess what... the second opinion said the exact same thing sooo it there was no doubt that all my stuff was torn and that i would have to get surgery, so i did and now im going threw rehab and just dreaming to walk again. you really take that you can walk every where for granted so the moral is appreciate that you can walk :)and this is my story
