A year of eccepting my own strengths and weaknesses and my Transition being able to do some of the things my brain thought I'd never do again
Vancuever Pride
Pride celebrations and public speaking
And practicing patience mindfulness and meditation learning to cart drive a mini horse

Blog over the last week
Part 1 For ya all
May17th 2022
12 siezures total over the last week and over the weekend mind of a gold fish over the last week and a bit What I call siezure brain atm
So ...
Have started using my disabled parking pass when out with workers I also go back and forth between mobility devices one cane or my walker (Ringo ) depending on how my balance is day by day physically come so far honestly im thankful even started coloring again!! Even though it took a week to finish!! 🙂gave it to my mom for mothers day!! Wich ended in my hands getting upset with me however iam pretty good trying to do more without help knowing my triggers ect
Been in constant contact with my partner via Facebook chat too so that makes things a little more barable on the off days ! Also more of a schedule with workers so that helps as well !!

Will split this up into 3 parts as I have a lot to catch up on 😉
