Wow...
Sorry about the delay in getting this post going this month.
Somehow the month of September started and got away from me. I don't even know how I lost track of time... maybe all of the training miles I am doing in preparation for the Marine Corps Marathon at the end of October is taking its toll on my brain's capacity to keep up... I mean the legs and body are sore and tired along with the mind...
But, just like Blood Clot Survivors we will overcome and keep going on day at the time counting the small victories along the way.
Speaking of victories...
How about SERENA WILLIAMS and her performance at the US Open?
BLOOD CLOT SURVIVORS CAN DO ANYTHING!!!
She is an inspiration for sure.
Yes, she did not win the whole tournament but as she is facing the twilight of her professional tennis career she delivered some captivating victories that are worth appreciating.
That is what being a survivor is all about. That is what the stories I have been sharing for almost 15 years of this blog are all about...
Doing what you can!
Appreciating the small progress or victories along the way that may eventually lead to bigger success!
Overcoming the challenges.
Doing what you can the best that your body will allow you to as you recover.
There is not much else to say about Serena's career that has not been said... She does need to someday plan on wearing some CLOT BUSTER @TeamSTOPTHECLOT polka-dots to truly wrap up and put a nice bow on top of all of her accomplishments.
Many years ago when news came out about her diagnosis I of course had a post about her celebrating that she is a BLOOD CLOT SURVIVOR... https://clot-buster-triathlete.blogspot.com/2011/03/march-athlete-of-month.html
Since this may be the end of her professional tennis career I think that it would nice to dedicate September's Athlete of the Month in 2022 to her. May she go on and continue to be a force for inspiration and good for all of us. It will be fascinating to see what she will do next and the success that she will have along the way.
BLOOD CLOT SURVIVORS CAN DO ANYTHING!
