They are very slow healing,
be he spent months trying to to get this to heal before,
and then we made a decision about how to treat it

One option is to take - close to his knee
and place a stick from here all the way down \
the bone in his leg inside the bone.
What's nice about that \ </ p >

The disadvantage is,
about 20% of people knee pain,

Sounds like death to me.
Like, hearing the word, it feels like,

And then finding out that means
almost a total break through my bones -
it's hard to understand that That can happen from dancing,
But it only impacts again and again and again,
maybe through a year trip,
that caused it.
If I keep dancing for anyone who knows how much Ionger,
my bones could be really split in two. </ p >

incIuding, I think, the company,
Once they realize, you know, the level of his injuries,
I don't think anyone really expected it
to be able to return from it
You know, you merged
injury rates with age,
the amount of wear in the body,

with everything that happened -
book transactions, < br /> Under Armor support,
You know, Coach agreement,
only everything happened,
Diet Dr. Pepper, engagement -
you know, "I - I understand
" The school principal is what you are aiming for,
"but what do I think < br /> You have built -
"What I think we have built -
" is much bigger than that,
"That, you know, what we have is not something
"that ABT or anyone can take from you
" And whereas before, you feel very aIone,
"You have a world by your side,
" So for all intents and purposes,
"you have won
You have won, did you become "-
because in people's minds, he is the principal
He is the star.
- I can't tell you
how many skin men black I know who -
I think they would rather go to Iraq,
have a relationship conversation,
or have a root canal instead of going to see the ballet.
But suddenly, they see an interview with Misty,
and they are like, < br /> "You know, don't you?
" get involved with ABT?
Can I come see the show? "
They underwent their careers.
They asked me about him.
That was some sort of hormonal contaminant.
When he gets people in the theater,
peopIe is actuaIIy moved by art forms
and realize this isn't much stupid people in tutus.
It's interesting. It's raw.
It's sexy. This is life .
It's about the things of human life.
