Nothiing

Being a kid with Cerebral Palsy was sometimes more than I could handle. I had to go through more than any of my friends, but honestly I have found that I wouldn't know the true meaning of courage or strength if I was like everybody else. Sure, there have been moments when I have thought life would be so much easier if I wasn't handicapped. God doesn't make mistakes though. I may would never completely understand why He has chosen me, but I wouldn't stop trying to see things His way. I choose to be strong and patient. Although I might be strong, I am still afraid about wanting to be a independent young woman with the limitations of my disability. I am not a child that could rely on adults anymore. I am a twenty-one years old young woman now. I am half through college. I would be graduating before I know it. I haven't thought about what exactly I want to do after I get my degree. The thought of getting my own  place still  scares me a little. Lastly, I get nauseated or frustrated every time the thought of getting married and having kids runs through my head. I know everything I decide to do would be little challenging, but I am perfectly fine with it. God wouldn't put me through anything I couldn't handle. It also helps knowing I have my family and friends by my side no matter. Nothing is going to keep me rocking and rolling :)

  1. Hi Brooke, I've known your grandmother, Lisa, and great-grandmother, Rosemary (what I called her) since I was a very young girl. They are both amazing women; you have an amazing family that loves you; and you are on an amazing journey. Keep writing and remember the blessings are in the journey!
