My little disability space [TW]

AvyIsKing December 16th, 2023

Hi! My name is Avy. I'm 15 years old. Basically I am going to use this space to rant about pain, the affects of my disability, and weird little things about it no one notices. 

Let me explain my story a little bit:

So in 2021 I was playing soccer and I got stepped on, and then stepped on again early 2022. I went to my doctor and she sent me to an orthopedic doctor. That was when the surgeon said he was surprised I hadn't been to see him sooner. Because of my injury I ended up with severe tendinitis and arthritis in my foot. I was sent to physical therapy. Through months of intense physical therapy 4 times a week and going to the surgeon every 3 weeks, he figured this out. I have naturally high arches, it runs in my family. But for some reason the tendons in my foot stopped growing when I was about 7. Which explains why my feet have always hurt. As I'm getting older and taller it's getting worse and one day the tendons in my feet will snap. I also have tri-pod foot (that's what he called it) from my heels being misaligned. Basically only 3 really small points on my feet ever touch the ground. Not even my toes 😨. I've gone through 2 pairs of inserts, I do physical therapy every dang day, and nothings working. Basically now my only option is surgery. Since I've been limping for 2 years my knee has been affected and so has my hips. This whole process has been really isolating and discouraging. I kind of just want it over. 

Anyway lots of weird things happen so I'll share them here!

im going to visit my grandma, all the way in new Jersey!!! (: I had the most amazing day. My mom didn't do much like at all, which big shock, I'm a big girl now, I guess happy birthday is enough lol aha. My sister and my friends planned a little surprise party and everyone made me gifts and it was so sweet I almost cried (:

@AvyIsKing awwww that's sweet ❤ have fun with grandma, I bet she'll be sooooo happy to see  you and your sister ❤❤  and a little party with your sister and friends that sounds really nice ❤ homemade gifts are the best ❤❤❤ 

you know when you and your sister are a little bit older living fun, happy lives, perhaps starting families of your own, then your mum is gonna realise the damage she caused, she's gonna realise all those opportunities she missed out on and mistakes that was her own ignorant fault. In the end it's gonna be you and your sister that come out victorious in this whole situation ❤❤

how are you feeling? I bet your doors hurting quite a bit after today? Is your knee any less swollen yet?? And how is your nose? I bet it looks really great on you ❤

I know, and I know shes done fighting, this has been 3 years in the fighting. I'm just scared, and sad. Really really sad. I dont want to loose her. Ive lost every person ive ever cared about. They all say they wont go and then they do. I had a really good birthday but now im head deep in scary sadness again. I dont know if i can handle loosing both of them. I'm like attached to my friend, i was literally screaming at him last night. And my grandma is just... Shes my world.

Tinywhisper11 March 22nd

@AvyIsKing being sad and scared right now is understandable sweetie 😞 hugggs you tightly. In any relationships, grandma or friend of other. We are all passing through this world making our own way. People will come and go all through out your life, but what matters is the memories you shared with them when you could. So instead of shouting at your friend do something memorable instead, like maybe one last giannnttt hug, and whisper in his ear, I love you and we'll meet again sometime ❤ and grandma isn't gone yet, you may not be able to see her as often as you like, but nice daily conversations on the phone, trust me it won't be a waste of time. Hugs you tightly ❤❤ offers a shoulder to cry on

i cant tell him i love him, even though i do. he has a girlfriend and his mom literally hates me. like she hates me for no reason other than i am the way i am. im gonna try and call my grandma more often, its just the idea of never seeing her again makes me so sad. i know people come and people go, but these are people that i consider my family. people i love with the entirety of my heart. i just don't want them to go. hugssss <3 im trying my hardest not to cry lol.

@AvyIsKing 😞😞 I'm so sorry sweetie 😢  I wish I was there to hug you in person. I've never had to deal with this kind of thing before, so I'm  not sure how best to comfort you. Just remember it's safe here, you can vent  and cry. You don't have to try and stay strong, when your not feeling it ❤ I love  you and I'm right here for you ❤
