[Oh_Breeze]

My name is Lisa and I'm a 43yr. old swf, wheelchair user of 12 years due to Friedreich's Ataxia.

I left Ohio with my then 9yr. old son in 1994 seeking a better climate as a wheeler and lived in the middle of the Ocala National Forest, Florida til I returned to Ohio just this past December making the trip alone and a 3 day ordeal, but I made it! Yes, I am a bit of a nut ..lol Seriously though, not knowing how much longer I will be able to drive with the progression of this disorder and knowing that it could possibly be my last road trip alone, I'm glad I did it!

My son is now a 21 yr. Marine Vet He had to fly back to California on 4/1st for follow up care, but he is doing very well and cannot wait to return back to Ohio to continue making future plans with his girlfriend of 4 years.:cool

I am currently still getting settled in my wheelchair accessible apartment and making many new friends who have also become a wonderful support team!
