New Wheelchair!
By: Graydon
I FINALLY got another new wheelchair. Just to catch you up in case you haven’t read my other blogs, I waited 4 months for a new one and when it came it was too small! Mom was really nervous that we were going to have a problem getting one that fit because it was a special order. But alas, they worked with us and got me a new one in about 2 weeks. It’s really great and I love the bright green color. It’s much bigger than the last one so it should grow with me for a long time. I’m on week two of ESY (extended school year). 2 weeks down and two to go and then I’m off for the last 5 weeks of summer. It’s also almost time for my favorite vacation of the year, Smith Mountain Lake! I love getting out on the water and also seeing my great grandparents. My mom and sister are heading to San Antonio next week for the Chromosome 18 Registry & Research Society Annual Family Conference. I’m not making the trip with them. I wish I could but I don’t really travel well. There’s really not anywhere safe for me to sleep at night in a hotel. We tried that back in March when I went to San Antonio with my parents and it didn’t go so well. Hope you’re all having a great summer! Here’s a picture of me in my new wheelchair.
