I don't save links, online stories, other people's uplifting online tomes.  Not much of anything from online sources.  Not even pics of boobs. 

I'm saving that one.  If for no other reason than I may need that insight someday and want the reference for grounding.  That's a guy worth respecting without ever meeting him.

Getting to know Charlie a bit better. Definitely a Ducati enthusiast! Nice to see he is riding again. Doesn't even quit for the winter! He'd probably say only one foot gets cold.

I haven't been on the forum for a long time, and this is what I found.  Charlie's story is of such strength.  As a physical therapist, I marvel at the beautiful quality of his movement and function;  knowing the tremendous work he had to do to achieve that.  As a rider, I so admire his approach and outlook - moving forward.   Only forward.   As cyclists that's our only choice! No reverse!   

It's great to feel so uplifted by just a 'visit' to the forum.   Thanks to Charlie; thanks to you all.
Safe travels.

Wow, awesome story and good for Charlie. Don't know if my attitude would be as good as his in those circumstances and I hope I never have to find out. It's amazing when you look back in your life and think of all the stupid things you've done and took for granted knowing it could all be taken away from you in a flash, but you still gamble anyway. This is one of the best stories I've read/watched in a long time.

My next door neighbor had a very similar injury and prognosis after getting knocked off a ladder trimming trees.
He went with the "keep the leg and foot" program. That was a year and half ago and the brace halo whatever you call it is most likely staying on for another 1 - 2 years as his bones grow.

He still has reservations about not just doing the "cut"

Wow! Charlie is a truly amazing guy! I have no idea how I'd feel if that ever happened to me, nor whether I'd be strong enough to just let the foot go.

Humbling....
