        You nee d a laugh
Joy,
    Check this out: first of all I do not have CP, I have FDRA and it gets
worse.  Hit me in my teens and went in the manual w/c at 21.  I am 30 now.
The other night I fell out of my chair and busted my head open and pulled
muscles in my righ solder and neck.  Yesterday I was walking my service dog.
I parked so she could play with her ball.  Some how she rolled the ball
behind a parked truck, so I took her off the flexi and secured the smaller
leash to my right arm.  She did not see it but I did.  Whe she did she ran
after it and slamed me into the back of the truck.  That's not all, she kept
goin after the ball and pulled me out of my chair sideways.  Do you know she
got the ball after all, laugh cause I certainly did.
     Anyhow I laid in the street while 2 cars passed and no one stoped to
help, I' da done it my self but my sholder hurt so bad.  My neibor sees me 10
mins latter asks if I am OK then runs back to her apt.  The whole time I was
thinking how wierd she is, she comes back out and says they are on the way.
    "Who?"  I asked.
    "Oh, I calledd 911"  Was her answer.
    I was so mad and embased; then from the fall my hat fell off beyond my
reach.  I commaned Timber to retrieve it for me and she my neihbor took it
from the dog's mouth, That ticked me off two.  Next she notices the four
staples in my head and removes my hat to show all the spectators my stitches.
 Next a huge fire truck showed up with 8 big guys looking for a fire.  The
chief agreed that she is wierd.
     I know it happened to you much ddifferent but I belive you need to be
heard.  Make Hect become ADA accessible and make the employees get educated,
it might be me next

"Do not suppose that, if you find something hard to achieve, it is beyond
human capacity; rather, if something is possible and appropriate for man,
assume that it must also be within your own reach." - Marcus Aurelius, _The
Meditations_
