Day 3: Decision Review

Think about a recent decision you made. How did your values influence that decision?

Early in 2024, I decided to get bariatric surgery to lose enough weight to get knee replacement surgeries (the first of which I recently had). Getting my knee replacement surgeries will go a long way toward improving my mobility which will greatly improve both my opportunities and my quality of life.

My decision to have three major surgeries within about one year was based on my need to be active in the world. How much could I do for others when I could barely do anything for myself? It might seem like this is entirely about me, but in the end, if I can do something to get better so I can do more, I feel obligated to do it at this point. It hasn’t been easy, but it is necessary to get me back on my mission.
