I was born with the right side of my body weaker, i have a limp, its hard for me to use my right hand. My parents were told by doctors that i would never be able to walk or talk. I spent most of my early life in physical thearpy. I was able to talk at a normal age, but walking took a very long time, i had to start with a walker, then a cane. When I got into school then it was tough to fit in, i couldnt write with a pencil because i couldnt push hard enough. The hardest part is the time it takes to do things or the fact that i cant d everything that i want to. Most days i dont notice it at all, other days i get very self concious to the point where i dont want to go outside.

People often offer help and the thing that i want most is to be able to do something myself. i dont think im a hero, just somebody who worked hard and didnt give up even when i wanted too.
