About April last year I found a gym within walking distance from my home, and I took the challenge to improve balance and gain some strength. That was what I trained for: strength, mobility and balance. We would exchange stories about her strength journey while I told her of my progress in hopefully gaining more balance (our only target then). In a few months, I was showing some success with my twice a week routine of gym, PT and nutrition coaching. The day came last Feb. 15, anxious from a night of fragmented slumber, I headed to the venue with cheering squad in tow.
