Happy Friday! I got an MRI a couple of days ago and I wasn't expecting the results. I've noticed some small changes that have affected my body, but I thought that they would eventually go away. So, when I learned that my disability had progressed I started crying because I hadn't had any major changes …

On The Outside Looking In
Happy Friday. Growing up, I've always been excluded from almost everything. First, it was birthday parties, then it was the pre-Homecoming/Prom stuff, like getting ready and taking pictures together. All this, was because of my disability because I couldn't get into certain places and because I had to have someone help me eat. So when …
Being Disabled Isn’t a Bad Thing; We Are Independent
From what I've experienced from my disability, people often feel bad for me. But the truth is that I've come to completely accept my disability. Now, don't get me wrong but some things bother me. Here's a short video that goes over a couple of things/situations that we wish you knew: https://youtu.be/_b7k6pEnyQ4 I completely agree …

The first time I stood during Worship
I was listening to a new song called The Word is Alive, by Seasons Collective. I had a general idea of what I was going to write tonight, that was until I listened to that song. Anyway, for those of you who don't know, I'm in a electric wheelchair, specifically the Permobil F5. My wheelchair …
Reconnecting with a friend
Sorry that this post is late; I was in a place where I couldn't get a signal. When I was in elementary school, I had the best friend anyone could ever have. I mean we did almost everything together, but then her and her family moved out of state. Well ever since they moved, I've …
My diet
I know I talked a little about Being Vegan, but it's a bit more complicated than that. My diet is considered a low protein diet. A low protein diet means limiting the amount of high protein foods you eat. Protein is usually found in animal foods. But protein can also be found in some plant …
Shopping centers
Hey everyone, happy Friday! On Wednesday, my friend (you know who you are) and I went shopping. I had a lot of fun trying on leather jackets; thank you to my friend for helping me. Something that really bothers me, is the fact that almost all shopping centers/malls have a tendency to put racks to …
Acts of service
Hey everyone, so today I wanted to talk about Acts of service, and how it can be difficult to find a act of service, when you have a disability. I experienced this over the weekend, as I'm doing a 35 day challenge. Well, in order to complete the challenge, you have to do some sort …
Vehicles in the way
Hey everyone. I'm glad that we were able to bring our troops back from Afghanistan. I truly hope and pray that the innocent people and American citizens will be able to get out of there. My prayers and thoughts go out to them and their families. Thanks to our troops who risked their lives for …
People who are trying to be supportive, can be detrimental instead.
Hey everyone, I hope you had a good day. Sorry that this late, I had a hard time finding the right words. On Saturday, my mom and I decided to go to a new church. It just happened that the church was starting a new series that day. Thank you, God! In the Bible, there's …

My unique perspective
Hey everyone, happy Friday! I'm grateful for my disability. You might be wondering, Why?! Well, without my disability and the challenges that come with it, I wouldn't be who I am today. I'd probably be someone completely different. In fact, sometimes I can't help but wonder who I'd be without my disability. What would my …
4th of July Fishtail
Hey everyone, I hope that you had a good weekend. Starting next Monday (the 19th): I'll post about my experiences with making rainbow loom bracelets. I'm going to post every Monday as well as Tuesday and Friday at 8pm CT. I've been trying to make bracelets for about a week now. I had to figure …
Living with a disability
Hey guys, I hope you had a good weekend. I have a disability that prevents me from being able to walk, so yes I'm in a electric wheelchair. I want your support if you like what I write, not because you feel bad for me. Since I have a unique perspective on life, I thought …
