“Change. Adapt. Bend so as not to be broken. Let opportunity guide your actions.” ― Wayne Gerard Trotman

It’s 12  : 28 PM on day 1052 of my journey towards independence and I’ve managed to pray, brush my teeth, read Judges 11,   publish my Disability of the Day feature,   feed myself boiled egg and  All Bran Flakes for breakfast, read God Isn’t Healing My Child With Cerebral Palsy – a thought-provoking blog post that investigates claims of a miraculous healing –       tweet and Facebook about my campaign –  no one made a donation so far today – and  practice sitting up straight to strengthen my core muscles.

Yesterday I realized the one thing we humans have going for us is our ability to adapt in 2010 Stacy Zoern—who uses a wheelchair because of a congenital neuromuscular disease—felt trapped in the ten-block radius in Austin where she lived and worked as an attorney so she contacted Kenguru, a Hungarian company that was developing small electric cars for wheelchair-bound people, convinced them to move to Austin and is now running the company. Are you able to adapt to change and grab every opportunity that comes to you?
