I can’t let Cerebral Palsy take over my life– that’s what I learned today  🙂

It’s 4  : 28 PM on day 854 of my journey towards independence and I’ve managed to take my t-shirt and jacket off and put a new t-shirt on, stretch my hamstrings, brush my teeth, practice sitting up straight to strengthen my core muscles,  read a couple of chapters of The Bible, feed myself  bread and baked beans for breakfast, publish my Disability of the Day feature,   listen to music, practice typing with both hands and watch TV.

This morning my dad woke up at like 5 AM which woke me up since I was awake anyway I decided to change out my old clothes and put a new t-shirt on to my surprise I had undressed and redressed myself in a short period of time which made me realize if I slept early and woke up early I would have time to do the things I had to do  (therapies)  and the things I wanted to do  (read, write, listen to music and spend time outside) it’s important to me to live a balanced life decades (hopefully) from now when I’m gone I want my obituary to read Nisha Varghese (1991-whatever year it is) daughter, sister, friend and aspiring philanthropist who tried every day to make a difference and be the best that she could be while having a lot of fun.     When you do something is it all or nothing?
