We want to help people understand.
We try to keep my life stories light and always look for the silver lining; even on the hardest days.
But, today was a bit of a hard day.
Mum filled out my enrolment form for big school.
She has been talking with teachers at the school for a while now; making sure the school has everything they need for next year. She's helping them understand me and helping them feel comfortable meeting my needs.
Filling out Kindergarten enrolment forms should be exciting, but Mum has also been filling out disability forms.
Sometimes, its hard to stay positive when you score the worst possible score that you can. Today, I didn't get many points on my 'ability test'.
When we focus so much on the 'cans', having to admit to so many 'can'ts' is hard. Today was a big day... A 'limits' day. We feel a little sad and scared today.
It's really just some words on a piece of paper, but sometimes the words really hurt.
