Redefining Limits!

After an accident at the age of 20, I’ve had to use a wheelchair for the rest of my life. Never feel inferior—there’s so much more we can accomplish than you might think! I plan to document my journey of overcoming obstacles!
(Now I'm 50 years old)

@applexie ❤❤❤ thankyou for your encouragement and inspiring story ❤❤ I'm 24, a double amputee, broken spine and missing fingers🙁 it's been a very hard few years, but feeling positive about the future 😁 ❤ hugs you tightly ❤

@applexie
thank you for the encouragement and sharing with us all. for us we have many many health issues. it hard to face the limitations and not to over do it for us. we have chronic traumatic brain injury , fibro two types of nephropathy and mental illnesses. for us it living in pain 24/7 meds help very little for the pain. we became fully disabled at age 32yr we now almost 55yr will be in feb.
for us the biggest issues been not being able to work. as we worked from a very young age with our dad. as he thought that was what kids were to do. so it hard not being able to work. plus our disabilities are unseen so people look at us as if we was lazy.
but like you we over-comers one day at a time :)
