For me living in Chicago the
winter months can be a challenge to put on my coat hat and mittens. It is
hard for me to zip a winter coat. I need a pull over coat my aunt knows how to
sow, she adapted my coat to have sewn up half way then zip up. I am grateful
for her doing that. I can't wear gloves my fingers have their own mind; they go
into the wrong holds. I wear mittens.
I have Cerebral Palsy, it effect my arms, my leg and I can’t talk. I use a Dynavox to communicate. I have to deal with depression. . I grow up in Waukegan. I attended a normal public school. When I was younger I played Special Olympics softball. In third grade I got my first communicate device. The device was big and it weighs 5 pounds. I live in my own apartment with a personal aide. I played for Paralympic Boccia. I work at The Arts of Life as a their archive and an artist. I write poetry. I am a published author. I wrote a books called Chicago’s seasons and Being in Harmony with Nature .
