Had a patient yesterday that I hadnt seen since my "incident". Real nice soft spoken guy, probably around my age or a little younger. He said he had the same problem about 15 years ago but his situation went a little further. I asked "did you kill him?" and he said yes. He had to go in front of a grand jury and it cost him thousands....but ultimately he was found to have acted in self defense. I didnt get the entire story but I will. Its amazing what it cost to even defend yourself in this day and age, but I guess it beats the alternative. Anyway you guys are the best and I know you are all with me when I walk out my door. I refuse to let this hide me away in fear. Reading the daily paper doesnt help but it does re-enforce my efforts to try and make people especially women wake up and take more responsibility for their own safety. I think I told you I was in contact on a regular basis with a convicted predator in another state. He alerts me to certain sites and forums that are keeping my incident alive, so I know its just a waiting game. My Sensei has even started sneaking up behind me to get me sharper and faster..We are working on assailants with knives, thats kinda fun...He also teaches knife throwing, I bought a book on it....looks rather interesting...
