I like to swim.  I like to read and play on my computer. 

When I found out I was approved to receive a Service dog, I could hardly wait.  John and I trained in June and now we are a certified team.    John helps pull me in my wheelchair when my arms get tired.  He picks up things I drop on the floor.  He can open heavy doors for me.  I got John from Susquehanna Service Dogs

 

 I can swim without a tube.  When we have swimming at school.   I can flip off the diving board in the deep end if someone helps me out to the edge.   I went sking lastmonth and am going again.  I ended up on the adult beginner slope

 

The doctors told my parents that my injuries were life changing but not life threatening.  That is how I live my life.  You can do anthing anybody else can do.   It might take a little longer  but with a few adjustments you can do it.
