The 75-year-old bowled for the first time in 40 years after being diagnosed with cancer, losing her eyesight and being told she would never walk again.
Over 40 years ago, when a California woman was stationed in Puerto Rico with her husband, she became an avid bowler. However, due to health reasons, she hasn't picked up a ball since — until Tuesday.
A year ago, when doctors told Womack she would never walk again, the 75-year-old set out to prove them wrong. On Tuesday, she took her first steps to approach her lane at a bowling alley. Womack was able to bowl four 300 games when she was younger. While she may not have rolled a perfect game on her first time back at the alley, she did feel the same thrill she did all those years ago.
Womack credits her ability to walk again to her"bee positive" attitude. On the back of her bowling shirt is a bee that matches her two bee tattoos, a significant symbol for Womack.
