Day 2747: Move on with life

Leave a reply

Life waits for no person– that’s what I keep realizing

 

It’s 1 : 08 PM on day 2747 of my journey towards independence and I managed to pray,  have breakfast, read Joel 2:12-13  and promote my 50 New Feet Campaign benefiting MiracleFeet –raised  $13 159 only $5 591 more to raise by June 17, 2018 to reach my new goal of helping 75 kids with Clubfoot by June 17, 2018.

 

Today will be my first physiotherapy sessions in weeks I know it’s going to be sore because I haven’t exercised in weeks but I’m going to paste a smile on my dial and be a trooper because for me the only alternative to being in pain is being dead and while I know Heaven is awesome God apparently has lots for me still to do here and I’m grateful to still be alive to do it.

Day 802

In everything in life what you put in is what you get out  – that’s what I keep learning 🙂

It’s  1 : 30 PM on day 802 of my journey towards independence and I’ve managed to stretch my hamstrings, spend some time learning how to help myself in the bathroom  – I can’t say I’m fully independent yet but I give myself an A for effort 🙂 – brush my teeth, feed myself bread and baked beans for breakfast, publish my Disability of the Day feature, practice typing with both hands and practice sitting up straight to strengthen my core muscles.

Yesterday my physiotherapist was one happy woman seeing all the hard work I put in over the past two weeks I think I’m doing so well with regards to my physiotherapy because I now get up every day and exercise whereas before I only exercised two days before I had to go to physiotherapy. Are you putting in enough to get what you want out of life?

I LOVE hearing from you feel free to leave a comment below.

Day 262

You’ve got to rise above daily humiliation and degradation to become something spectacular – that’s what I learned today 🙂

It’s 7: 40 PM on day 262 of my journey towards independence and I’ve managed to brush my teeth, feed myself sweet potatoes for breakfast, watch TV, feed myself Chapati for lunch, go to physiotherapy (see pictures below), tweet about my Clean Water For All Campaign –no luck but on this plus side my new friend, Adelaide Dupont, did write a blog post about my campaign earlier today – thanks Adelaide 🙂 – feed myself rice and curry for dinner and brush my teeth once more.

Today I was laying on my bed facing the black headboard when the memory of my mother describing – in detail – to my aunt – my uncle’s wife – how she bathed me suddenly popped into my mind and in that moment I felt as humiliated as I did the day I overhead the phone call but then I realized that I shouldn’t care what people think of me because the majority of them had already made their minds up about me. Are you using all the wrongs committed against you as an excuse not to be all that you can be?
