Before I learned to walk, my body was like a spastic little baby. My various body parts were unable to communicate with each other. As the weeks and months marched on, my body’s nervous system grew new connections, new pathways that enabled body-wide communication. As these pathways gained stability, my brain could reliably send electrified information into my arms and legs, gaining the confidence to take that first step towards the NCAA D3 athlete this body would become. Not so spastic anymore grandma, not so spastic anymore.
