Ron (a.k.a. The Big Break)

Here, I apply The Balance to my body.

A slow-motion motorcycle accident (not anything cool — more like comedy) left me with a fractured tibia. The doctors said “immediate surgery;” — and if you know me, you can figure out what *I* said!

Follow my adventures as I verbally wrestle with them to keep from cutting me open. Then I applied real qi-gong Chinese medicine to myself, with the help of other practitioners. Stay tuned for the full case study. (Hint – today, I’m walking around without crutches.)
