Congratulations on writing such a great piece and good luck with the healing. It’s not easy to write well – let alone amusingly – about a genuinely harrowing experience, and yet you have done so.

I too love the way you wove the kimchi into the story making us believe all was right with the world. Be well. Wonderful story.

I'm so sorry about your knee, and hope your rehab is going well. Thank you for weaving kimchi so artfully into a story about life, silver linings, and hotness.

I destroyed my left knee my freshman year of college, and haven't been able to ski, dance, run or roller skate since. You will be happy to know you can still ride a bicycle, an activity I have taken to with gusto. I love all things cabbage and fermented, so I really appreciated this post. Thank you.
