My Wish List

Well yesterday was election day in my beautiful country of Trinidad and Tobago and we had a change in government. I just hope that this new government will address the issues of public buildings not being wheelchair accessible, an improved public transportation system so the differently abled can get around with ease, more jobs for the differently abled and every school having an assistant or two to assist the differently abled students instead of having students with minor disabilities in 'special schools.'

A Mother's Worth

Mother's day, like all the other days that we celebrate each year, we celebrate just because we were told to. I don't agree with the notion that says that I should buy my mother a gift just because it's the second Sunday in May... Come on, why should we honour someone that is so precious to us once a year?

I'm Right Here

There are a few things that people do that really annoy me and one of those things is when people stand in front of me and talk about me like I'm not hearing what they are saying. Some people think that just because I'm in a wheelchair I'm deaf or I just can't comprehend what they say but I have news for them, I can!!!
