My strength Journey

Motivation is the key.

No excuses.

No limits..

Your disability is your abilities..

Determination is the key to unlock the world..

Doctors you use to fear me now you build me..You told me "no" many times but I am doing it anyway..

I believe in miracle.

I still imagine myself walking or using a walker..

In my wheelchair I feel like I am lock in box..

When I am out I am so happy with a smile..

I went through process after process to almost giving up to finding a place that I will benefit from and give my body motivation and to see steps in a way I will get to use a gait trainer again
Yesterday I did leg cycling for over 45 minutes and then I was in the stander for a half hour it truly was a great work out
I don't think this will happen over night but I will keep going
Yesterday was an awesome day..

This only the beginning follow my new journey..

I remember my mom sharing with me in the beginning of me going into the public school system a school physiologist came to evaluate me and because I didn't respond to her she assumed I didn't know my colors and made a decision th

Quarantine is a new normal for many but is not strange to those with disabilities

Life in quarantine as person with a disability is nothing new it's often our reality in some cases. Before this current situation I feel like I once lived in aspect of quarantine in high school for 4 years. It never really hit me to make such connection to the new reality until today. In 2009 the beginning of my high school journey On the first day of school when the school bus came to pick me up the diver inform my mom that the school i was in route to go to was not wheelchair accessible.. I never really talk out this experiences in my speeches but a few weeks ago I was ask to share my journey with college students majoring in education ask me if I had the opportunity of going to same schools as my peers and neighbors if wanted too and that was when the light went of in my head to share this experience. very few of my neighborhood schools are wheelchair accessible so again my parents and I didn't have many choices on placement of school. Once I got the okay to atten
