Welcome to AdaptiveBJJ!
When I first began TFS, I was an upset, hurting, and new triple amputee. I spent much of my days trying to figure out how I was going to live again after losing all the fingers of my left hand and both legs below the knees due to a MRSA infection. I decided to blog about my experiences during recovery, and that blog turned into Two Feet Shorter.
I hope that TFS was helpful to many new amputees, Lord knows it was therapeutic for me in writing! Times change, and I have changed along with with it. I no longer felt the need to blog about daily battles as an amputee, and I began to post less and less. The things that became important in my life was travel, writing, and Gracie Jiu-Jitsu, and as great as those topics are, they were not always the proper thing to post on a blog built around recovery from amputations.
Thus, AdaptiveBJJ.com was created. Here you will find a bit about being an amputee, but much more about simply living life, and enjoying a BJJ Lifestyle. So please, come follow along with me as I live my life on my terms, not just as an amputee, but as a human being!
If you have been using TFS as a resource for students, don’t worry! You will find all those pages, posts, and blogs about my recovery right here on AdaptiveBJJ, just check out the links above, or use the search box on the right.
