Day 1073: Tactless people

People can be so tactless – that’s what I keep learning 🙁

 

It’s 12  :  56 PM on day 1073 of my journey towards independence and I’ve managed to pray, brush my teeth, feed myself Bran Flakes and a peanut butter sandwich for breakfast, read 1 Samuel 7,   publish my Disability of the Day feature,  tweet and Facebook about my campaign – nobody donated so far today but I’m not giving up I’m only $160 away from goal – and practice sitting up straight to strengthen my core muscles – my right leg is still not a 100% healed so don’t want to exercise my legs so I decided to make the best of the situation and work on my sitting 🙂

 

Two days ago a couple came to visit us the aunty was talking to my mother she said you work so hard you work at school and you work at home I always think of you you’’re situation (that’s what some people refer to me as, a situation) is so difficult you don’t get to take part in social activities I was shocked and a little hurt that someone would come to my house and say these things about me within earshot of me.
