Hi, I'm Cierra and I've been playing softball since kindergarten. My mom has been with me the whole way, taking me to practices, games, and tournaments.

What?! No. you need to practice there's a tournament coming up!

Hey.. I have a lot of homework. Can I skip practice tonight?

Softball stresses me out but what's worse is that my mom prioritizes it over everything else.

It was game day and I was helping out on a team with my high school varsity coach. Everything was going well during warmups.

That was until I was fielding a ball in the air and I stepped in a big hole and I heard a loud crack from my ankle and I fell. When I tried walking it off, I couldn't walk without limping.

ouch!!

I went to go talk to my mom about it quickly before the game started but she ended up brushing it off. I was in too much pain to ignore it but I did the best I could and kept playing.

When the game was over I felt awful because I didn't play very well because I was slow. I was in extreme pain since I was trying to cover the fact that I couldn't walk normally.

You'll be fine. It's just one game!
