‘I’m an athlete’: Omaha woman with MS stays positive on fitness journey ahead of Lincoln race | Nebraska
Though they’ve identified each other solely since early February, Kozelichki calls Freeman “Kim squared.”
With Freeman, Kozelichki can breathe contentedly understanding she has a buddy who “will get her.”
The doorbell rings. Kim’s trip has arrived.
She slowly walks out of the kitchen to the lobby, with every step, reminding herself: Heel-toe. Heel-toe.
Kim gingerly picks her means down one flight of carpeted stairs. Then one other.
The toe of her navy Brooks sneaker catches on a step. Kim doesn’t jerk or begin. She pauses, like a ballerina en pointe.
She lifts her foot and ventures by a door, passing by the storage, and into the daylight and chilly air.
