I Had A Paper Round

We All Bullet Point Our Triumphs, But I Am Who I Am Because Of Everything You Don't See On My Cv. The Stuff That Doesn't Work Out Teaches You How To Trust Your Instincts And Adapt.

It's An Objective Fact That I Am A Double Amputee, But It's Very Subjective Opinion As To Whether That Makes Me Disabled.

For Me, I Never Ever Felt The Ownership Or Any Identity With Any Community Of Disabilities. I Didn't Grow Up Being Told That I Was A Disabled Child.

When I Watch Mad Men And I See The Patronising Attitudes To Women That Are So Shocking For All Of Us To Watch Now, I Feel That I've Lived And See The Same Evolution In This Regard Around Disability.

A Lot Of My Life Is About Will - Having The Will To Prove What My Body Can Do.
