Cindy

Hello. My name is Cindy. I’m an Administrative Assistant. I’ve always been good at organization and helping others do what needs to get done.

Today in our community, too many people are just trying to get through the day, dependent on the help of others for meals, transportation, and common daily tasks.

That’s why I help a young man who, as a result of a brain injury due to birth complications, has cerebral palsy. He is a highly intelligent person living in a body that just doesn’t work like it should. He has a college degree and gives lectures by typing the message into a computerized voice device, since he cannot speak. He needs the help of friends to make meals, eat, get groceries, and meet the general demands of daily living so that he can live independently.

This makes me realize how easy it is to take a healthy body and the ability to take care of daily living for granted. Who knows, I may need that kind of help from someone someday.

Sharing a part of my day,
