My Story. Introduction, (excerpts from writing that I have done for my book.)

INTRODUCTION

 

It was the end of the 2010 College football season that pushed me to seriously thinking about writing this. On October 16, 2010, Rutger’s defensive lineman Eric Legrand was paralyzed in a collision during a game against Army. My father, a Rutgers alumni, who has close ties to the athletic department there, was swiftly taken back to the time of my injury.

So, what else is new? Well, another part of Steve 2.0 has been equally important in my quest to build a better Steve. My health. I didn’t have much say when keeping myself alive became a daily chore and eventually a glamorous career. This was a tough lesson to learn.

Ever since my accident I’ve tried to make sense of a lot of things. I mean, I realize I am a very fortunate man.I mean, for one thing I am alive. For another, I have had a tremendous support system. My family, the people in my life early on after my accident, and ultimately with meeting my wife Jayne. All of these things are very important, they kind of line the nest so to speak. My support system has provided, to the best of their ability anyway, an environment or situation where I can try to live a worthwhile and meaningful life. Ultimately, it all comes down to me. Herein lies the rub… I am my own worst enemy. The flat-out insanity of my situation has taken me to some pretty dark lows and of course, some incredible triumphs.
