2. MEETING MY WIFE

-

 

I was on a dating site called Plenty of Fish and I came across Morgan’s profile and I sent her an email to which she replied. We sent emails back and forth for a while until we exchanged numbers. One day I asked her if we could meet, she texted back with a yes and told me that she was working that day, but we could meet each other on her break. I made arrangements to meet her and I asked for a ride to her work from a roommate, at the time, I lied to him and said that I needed to pick up pain meds at the Zehrs Pharmacy.  I met my wife Morgan on October 10th, 2016 during her lunch break, after that, we hit it off and have been together for over four years now! Morgan does not see or think of me as disabled, but differently-abled. I am so glad I met someone who is kind, very patient, and understanding!

Each day at recess, I would be doing anything and if I was seen by these two older boys. They would push me down a lot, call me names and mock me, this went on for a year or so. This bullying was physical yes, but also mental abuse. Fast forward to when I was 12, I finally had enough and started fighting back, but in a positive way. I started to simply ignore them and avoid any conflict. By doing this, it was easy to make friends as my shyness and anxiety wore off and I enjoyed the little things. Before I knew it, I had graduated and was about to merge into high school, with it being a brand new school, new friends, and a new fear of bullying. HIGH SCHOOL AND BULLYING, WITH A TWIST When my first day of grade 9 came and went, there was so...

1. Early Life

H ave you ever wondered what life is like with a disability? Well, I am going to describe my life dealing with Cerebral Palsy in my own personal autobiography. When I was born, the umbilical cord was wrapped around my neck which created a lack of oxygen to my brain. It was not until I was around two years old that my parents and doctors noticed that my crawl was irregular and my gait while walking for the first time looked abnormal.  Craig at 4 years. I was seen by many specialists at Toronto’s Hospital for Sick  Children and Barrie’s  Royal Victoria Hospital and was  diagnosed with a mild case of Cerebral Palsy. I was incredibly  lucky as there are many types of cerebral palsy with some minor cases where it only affects one limb and there are cases that are so severe that they cannot talk, move, or think for themselves, and require daily assistance by a developmental service worker. SCHOOL LIFE Growing up differently was a challenge ...
