Let me tell you some thing growing up with a disability like I have was really, really, hard for me I had to kind of stuggel every day to get going in my life and my parents had helped me too.. Because my left arm, my left hand, my left leg, and my left foot I could use great. It is just my right arm, my right hand, my right leg, and my right foot that are paralyze from the really bad car accident that I had back when I were two in a half years old back in the year of 1969, I do not remember my bad car accident only what my parents told me some days growing up they said that when I was just two in a half years old I was playing in my neighbors yard and a guy that was hurrying to his house driving fast to feed his eight kids did not see me and then he would drive in to the back of my head and I was drag under the rear bumper and then I was thrown seventy-two feet into an oak tree and then I was driven by ambulance into the hospital and I was in a comer for eight weeks. The only reason why I can still remember the bad car accident is one day when I were living on thirty-eight Dexter street with my family I were sitting on a big cement stub out in the front yard and I would see my brother and sister that are not disable like I am walking across the street and when I had saw that they could cross the street alone then I had ask my mother and father if I can cross the street too. and then they had said no. Because I did not know about what had happened to me when I were two in a half years old. And with all of those cars and trucks that were driving so, so, fast up and down the highway I would get hit again. But I am so, so, glad that I had obeyed my parents that day and they let me walk by holding my four prong cane with my very strong left hand and then I played in the yard in stead. walking with my four prong cane moved my very, very, strong left arm then my very strong left leg would take a step then my left foot would automatically would point my left toes down to the ground then my whole right leg would take a step but I have to really, really think about it and concentrate too. I were more safer when I would be around other able boded adults and I am very, very, glad that my mother and sister had bought me a four big wheel dark red motor scooter they had bought me a dark red big four wheel motor scooter back in the year of 2012, I can remember when I had first came to live at the McLaughlin house it was back in the year of 2001, then I use to have a dark brown three big wheel motor scooter. But a tire got flat so I wanted to get a new motor scooter. So when I had went to the Rehabilitation hospital up at Hogan that is in Danvers every Thursday morning in order to swim in the great big wide and very long Olympic size swimming pool. I can remember get a three big wheel dark blue motor scooter in the year of 2004 I use to ask a staff person that use to work at the McLaughlin house in North Reading, that if I can drive across the great big long parking lot so that I could drive sitting in the seat of my three big wheel dark blue motor scooter into the dunking donuts restaurant to order a cup of coffee so I had got the oh kays .While I had order my coffee at dunking donuts I could stay over at the dunking donuts restaurant to watch the television that is bolted to the corner of the wall at the dunking donuts restaurant for a while when I was drinking my warm cup of coffee while I were talking to my friends at that time named Bruce Clark, Debby Tisa, Margie McDerma, and Peter Chocrack. But now when I am driving over to the dunking donuts restaurant sitting on the seat of my four big wheel dark red motor scooter a very better motor scooter for me because of the four big wheels and of the great big very wide and deep basket on the front handle bar so, so, deep that when I am parked at a table that is inside of the dunking donuts restaurant that when I take my base ball helmet off of my head I can put my base ball helmet gentle into my great big very wide basket and if any one wants to read my online journal type http://Georgie8ma.tripod.com. You know when I get up from my bed at night and I fall it is kind of hard for me to get up again. Because I would have a very hard time bending my right leg I can not bend my right leg like I could bend my left leg. I usual have to concentrate real hard to stand up and I hate to be compared to a person that is not disable like I am because that able bodied person could do a lot me different things then I could do so I do need help at night and when I am a lone and I do fall at night most of the time I have to yell help at the top of my lung for any one to here me. So it is hard for me being disable
