I'm proud of myself for taking and I'm proud that I'm still able to rock my humor as a way of coping.

This has changed me but then again we all change regardless of physical diagnosis. I'm taking this opportunity to be an advocate and oddly enough I recently accepted the job as a disability coordinator/counselor at a college. Because I know what it is like to deal with pain, emotional stress, assistive devices & day to day burdens I am loving helping others with accessibility so they also will have the opportunity to follow their dreams.

May everyone have a blessed day
Thank you so much for this post! It was so inspiring!
