About Me
I was born with a severe club foot. My parents were told I would never walk, surgery could be done to partially straighten it out, but the foot and leg wouldn't be functional. Luckily, and Thank God, my young parents refused to accept those dire predictions about their first born. I've been able to do whatever I wanted to do, maybe not so well, and certainly not so pretty! Starting life like that served me well for this MS life. I don't accept what I'm told readily; I know I can do what I want once I figure out how - that is if I want it bad enough. I'm a fighter & believe I get what I need.
