There's Still Hope!
Hello everyone!
I just got some bittersweet news. My dad called saying i got a letter in the mail from the medical review board at the department of motor vehicles. Bad news is they didnt say I could drive. Good news is, they couldn't make a decision because they don't have enough information. I am no longer permanently denied! I have to get a visual eye test form filled out by my eye doctor and send it back. I am sure he will help me out on this because he has been willing to support me on driving ever since before I started drivers ed after explaining to me how he has patients who are worser off than I and can drive. Next, I have to get an evaluation form from O/T which should not be hard since I will be starting O/T again pretty soon and my therapist is very helpful. I am just really excited about this. Im trying to be more optimistic and less pessimistic! I now see the difference the botox makes. My wrist and fingers straighten out so easily. There is a huge difference! I just wish they would stay straight all the time. Now all I have to do is tackle this arm. If I can just get it to stay straight while I walk!
Also after my breakdown, I decided to go see one of the school counselors. I told her about how stressed I was and she talked to me. I see her again tomorrow. I made some accomodations for my test. Since my quizzes were online, I noticed that it was taking me a long time to find the bubble to click and sometimes when I'd move the screen down, the dot would jump to the next answer. That was really causing my score to drop so now I take my quizzes on paper in an individual setting. I think I did great on my last quiz. Im glad I spoke up! Speaking of school, I have been so busy! Next week is midterms and I have been working on projects and papers left and right while going to meetings, workshops, volunteering, and preparing for my internship. I also checked out a book from the library to keep me focused!
Oh yeah and I have a boyfriend! :wub2: We had been dating for about 2 months now and we were just friends but we just decided to be in a relationship a couple of days ago. He is a really nice guy and he really supports me. He always drives me around whenever I need to go somewhere and he's by my side when I am feeling down. Well anyway sorry this is so long. I got to get back to homework!
