To be a Butterfly

Personal story about my Swimming Career. I'll post more with the more I know people are interested in this story of mine. It's quite unique, so I might as well write it down before it fades with age. Things you need to know 1: I am a swimmer. Though I will never be swim again because of my injuries, at least competitively, I was and will always be a swimmer. 2: My senior year, my coach decided to throw me a curve ball, by switching my main stroke to Butterfly, when I'd been a freestlyer and only a freestyle swimmer my entire career 3: I have a horrible back injury which resulted in causing a knee injury, which kept me from practicing a dolphin kick, which is more than half of what a butterfly stroke. With that, I also had a giant cell tumor, which i only found it to be what it was AFTER my swimming year was over, was growing in the top of my foot, keeping me from practicing with fins on, another set back to learning how to properly swim the stroke. 4: My leg and back injury got to hurting so bad that for the two months before my District and Regional meets, I didn't even kick during practice. It was all upper body training for me. 5: My coach, despite sounding like he'd rather it not be the case, decided by himself to put me in the 100yd butterfly for my last two meets of my entire swimming career This is my story.
