Hello cerebral palsy! We’ve been together since the beginning which too many seems like a tragedy. The physical delays or actual losses, getting picked on, misunderstood because my speech is affected, being a minority, learning difficulties, aches and pains. You are the easiest thing to blame every challenge or misfortune I have on. But that’s not fair because everyone struggles and has things they want to change about themselves.
I will say, you have taught me to never give up regardless of how big the obstacle is. You are there to remind me to always be compassionate and empathetic (not sympathetic towards others). You allow me to appear soft and vulnerable on the outside but hard & unbreakable on the inside. You have taught me patience, resilience and resourcefulness. By making a decision to have a good relationship with you and live full each day...I somehow inspire others just by minding my own business and putting up with you 💗so I suppose we’re a pretty cool duo...”you and me!”
My focus is on what it takes to have self confidence in today's society as a woman with a physical disability. I hope I can inspire and help individuals by sharing my experiences. I am an Occupational Therapist with a master's in Rehabilitation Counseling. I have worked as a school based OT for the past 15 years and hope to share my expertise with others. I feel that maintaining a balance and holistic approach towards life's challenges is the best way to be productive, happy and successful!
