The Good the Bad and the Real

For a long time now I have been unsure of how much to tell people about myself and how much of the good/bad stuff to tell. I a very optimistic person by nature, but someone recently told me my blog candy coats the real struggle people with CP have. I find this very unfair If there had been Blog when I was 12 then it would be filled with hate and anger. But at 20 something I’m done with operations and PT. I’m as good as I will every be in regards to my CP and the skills/abilities I have.


Good: I fall up the stairs not down. I was one step from the top of a lecture hall and someone says to me do you need do you need help. I turned to tell them no and tripped and feel sideways. As people stood around me I said the first thing that came to mind “At lest I did not fall down all the stairs”. There was a little chuckle of laughter and the trip was forgotten with a hand helping me off the ground.

Bad: I recently joined a Sorority recently and have not looked back. This is something I always wanted to do but have been afraid to do it. Here at my University you meet all the sorority and then you the preference you and you preference them. I was afraid they would we my disability and reject me. I meet a girl with CP and she only got asked to come back to ONE sorority on campus. She did found a great group of people that lover her for her and now me for me.

Good and the Bad are what make my life mine. I would not be the same person with out my struggles or accomplishments. Everyone know that life is about ups and down. EVERYONE know that!! I would seem less relatable to others and how can I seem real to parents look for a glimpse of the future for their children if I did not seem like I had any real problem. There are to many fakers on the internet making fake blogs and lying about their lives.
