He's Really Opening Doors

When Indy came home his trainer taught him how to open my bedroom door. He couldn't open it though unless it wasn't properly closed. So today I finally fixed it. I filled the hole for the bolt with sticky tack. and now he can open the door. He's so enthusiastic about it.

Flashback

I'm living in a flashback. This is the summer I was 16 all over again only with out the hospital stay. My limbs are rebelling on my and I despise it! the majority of my joints hurt my knees are swelled up along with my hands swelling sometimes and the joints in my fingers aching. I can live with out my legs. I'm not saying I want to but if I had to I could happily live without use of my legs. But my hands are everything. With them I knit I type I play with Indy I color I do my puzzles and play with my Lego and I sort my beads. without my hands I have nothing, nothing to make me a valuable member of society or to help my parents.

I know it sounds like I'm getting ahead of myself but it is REALLY scary when your body rebels and your limbs won't listen. It's not only hard on me but hard on mom and daddy. What parent wants to see their child no matter how old in pain?

The hardest part for me is that we have no clue why this is happening. I've been tested for so many things so many times, it's just so frustrating. what a way to end my nineteenth year eh?

A whole year.

Wow I can't believe it. Yesterday was the first of august and you know what that means. Indy and I have been together for a whole year. wow the time flies. A whole year. He's older I'm older mom and dad are older. but we're all wiser I hope.

I'm Different then I was this time last year. I'm more confident and I have faith. I have faith in Indy to do and be what I need and I have faith in me. And I as ever have faith in The One Who Watches Over Us All.

I've done more with Indy's help then I've ever dreamed of. And the dreams only get bigger.
