Hi Katie,
I admire your spirit,I’ve been in a wheel chair since
9-9-78.I was living in Chicago at the time.I was on
My way to work.I had early morning shift.I got
To this alley and was attacked by someone ,never
saw his face.He then raped me,threw me over a
railing that’s how i broke my spinal cord.I’ve
Been so blessed,I’ve allways been independent ask God to let me still be independent,and still help
Other people.I live in St. Louis,At Gateway
Accesible Housing.Been here far thirteen years.
Keep doing what you are doing,That’s what God
wants us to do,not to give up.
God Bless You
