not-the-popo

Tried to make the friendship last but time and distance kind of ended it and I am sure part of it had to do with him feeling very guilty and being around me was a constant reminder of the mistake he made.

I would say mild depression yes. I was 17 and essentially my passion was taken from me before I really knew what hit me. Family and Friends got me through 100%. There wasn't a single day that my family wasn't beside me in the hospital going through everything with me. My coach was there everyday and slept in the lobby the whole first week it seemed like and he was constantly building me up and making everything seem like it would be okay. My brother is in the army and was at jump school at the time, once he got back I think my spirits raised drastically. Last but not least was my teachers, friends, and teamates were constantly in my room cheering me up. Oh, and the world cup was on. GO USA!

haha yes, couple inches from a whole different story though...

I am sure if it was a complete accident he understands that, even if he wouldn't admit it. Glad to hear you were able to somewhat keep your friendship.

haha no I have not. I have had people call me manatee before but thats about as far as it has gone.
