I was born with cerebral palsy I’ve been in the chair for as long as I can remember. I’ve needed help every day since that day I was born. Independence is something that has come little by little. I went to college and found a way to get it done, with lots of help…
Even though I’ve never had a day job, I struggle with Monday just like everybody else. As I get older they seem to get worse. The best way I found to deal with them, it Is constantly reminding yourself that you are in control and it’s going to be a good week. You have no…
How thankful are you for what you have? Seems like a weird question I know. I don’t know about you, but it’s easy for me to get hung up on what I don’t have, or what I’m missing, instead of thinking about how blessed I am, I have a friend in the hospital right now,…
