Karen Lynn Vidra, The Texas Tornado, click here to update your pages on AuthorsDen.




     A person who is disabled shares his feelings about people who act inconsiderate towards him.

I suppose I should be grateful that I can walk at all, but I still get annoyed when people tell me to get out of the way as they are in a hurry or worse, push me aside.  I can't tell you how many times I've fallen because of their impatience.

I was born with brain damage; at age 15 months, I was diagnosed with cerebral palsy; because of it, my legs are weak and I walk with braces and crutches.

I can live with that.  I have no other choice but to do so.

It's people's attitudes that get me.  But people need to accept the fact that I will never get any better, no matter how many surgeries/hospital stays, doctor's visits, or therapy sessions I have.  Rigth now is as good as I will ever be, and if you can't accept that, then I have no use for you.

I know that may sound mean, but that's just how it is.  Deal with it and let me live my life the way I see fit!

~To be continued!~

Awwe, it's hard being disabled in a non-disabled world. What those who are impatient fail to realize is that one day, it could happen to them. Disability doesn't discriminate. THEN what? Well done, Karen.

(((HUGS))) and love, Karla.

Karma Bank to Following By Listening by Chiemi

These song lyrics and art are tales, tides and twinkling lights - tunes telling stories of warmth and sun, city and sand, paths that lead, and the coins we can keep in the Karma Bank. Spirit's been bypassed for sorrow, dreaming of a better tomorrow .
