Fairy's Flight

My first time on silks in nearly 2 years. It’s an absolute miracle.

I’d like to extend my sincerest thanks to my stellar orthopedic surgeon as well as my incredible physical therapists.

This time last year, I truly truly believed I’d never be able to climb a silk again.

Things are going pretty good! I haven’t made many posts cause I was mostly doing boring things in physical therapy to regain range of motion.

But I’m about 3 months post op now and have been cleared to go back to ballet and lift light weights. I am so overjoyed.

Feels crazy that after so much pain for so long, just 3 months post op I am doing well enough to do overhead presses, lat pull downs, and go back to light dancing.

My surgeon says he used to work for Cirque du Soleil and has done these procedures for other aerialists. He feels confident I’ll be back up in the air eventually, no problem.

Update: surgery was a success!

As promised, my straight arm invert! Now to squash that microbend in my legs.
