Life for me

People help do things that I cannot do
I use a wheelchair instead of my legs
I use a walker to hold me up instead of myself
I use a head rest to help me hold my head up
I use a seat belt so I don't fall out of my wheelchair
I use a chest strap so I can sit up better

My mom lifts me into the van
so I can get around places where I'd like to goeveryone in my family helps me

I have a special neads dog
who helps me incase I need her
she is my best friend

I take medication to help my body
I don't like them but I have to take them
I know they help me

One day I will be in GODS arms
with my dad who died of cancer
they'll great me to HEAVEN

But until then I'll learn how to deal with life
complete my dreams love everyone in my life

Minna

Outstanding.
This is such a powerful poem. The style of it, just straight-forward no nonsense facts, information, makes it have a great impact.
Very very well done. The unique style of the poem is what makes me say that.
You did good.

Hey there, this was a very powerful piece. It was also kind of personal. Your words are very true. Keep your head up. Keep up the great work.

NIcely done here Minna!
You are a strong woman!



I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust.

I'm in love with my shadow
I admire it daily

I don't even know you but you are strong, I loved your poem, like everyone else said..they all took the words right out of my mouth, and you are a princess in your own right, most ppl would be down on themselves but you have such a beatiful spirit and outlook =) I simply loved it!! brought tears to my eyes because it was so straight forward =)

Tmd,
Kristen

Minna...I'm so proud of you I go to school with a girl in a wheelchair, she has spinabifida (or however you spell it), and she's constantly (in my opininon) trying to get people to feel sorry for her...Minna, I know nothing about your background, but you are a wonderful person, I hope all is well in your future

Minna, you just showed me your inner strength.
And I envy you for I'm not even half your strength.
Hope I had your will in life.
