I’m a proud Auntie!


I’m a proud Auntie

Today at 6:48 AM, my beautiful Nephew Logan was born after a 12 hour labour.  He weighs 10lbs 3oz and is perfect in every way.

When my sister rang me this morning to tell me the news, I cried out of happiness. Birth is so beautiful and amazing.
I am very proud of my big sis, being pregnant and giving birth is not easy. I can’t wait to see him later  on today, to give him a cuddle and give my sister her presents.

Becoming a auntie means so much to me, I’ve waited such a long time to have a little person in my life. I can’t wait to buy him presents this Christmas and ones to come, along with Birthdays. 
I can’t wait to share so many special moments with him.

The birth of baby Logan has made me want a child of my own, so much more.
I’m sure it will be possible, no matter what my mobility turns out like.
 I am going to speak to my doctor, to see is my body is in a fit enough state to give birth.
And if it’s not, I would love to adopt and give a child who’s had a rough start in life, a loving family.

See you tomorrow

I can no longer walk unaided! 😢

This is a tough one This is such a difficult blog to write. Today I woke up at 10:45 as normal. I can no longer walk unaided.  Yesterday I could take 8 steps before loosing my balance, now I can take none.  I stood up and tried to take a step, but I just fell. I had managed to pull myself up again using my bed (I lost the ability to do it with just my hands 2 weeks ago). So once I got up again, I tried walking again and fell again. I realised that my ability to walk unaided had just gone. I shouted of my Mum to come and help me walk to the bathroom. We were both in tears. I went downstairs on my bum, as I felt it was safer and my Mum helped me to the kitchen table. As soon as my Mum had given me my breakfast, she immediately rang my private physio. Thankfully my physio had a free slot and came to see me this afternoon. She brought a pair of crutches with her for me to try out, but due to my lack of grip in my hands, I was unable

My future, is this common?

Up until recently my mobility has been pretty good. I was able to walk quite well, just on tiptoe. Even though I have always tired quite quickly when walking, I’ve always refused to use my wheelchair, unless I’ve been in pain. This is because I didn’t  want to loose my strength, my independent walking and I found wheelchairs ugly and unattractive ( I still do ). Over the past 9 months, I’ve found my mobility suffer quite a lot  to the point where I can’t walk any distance really without being in agonising pain. I’m falling every 15 to 20 steps and this is continuing to decrease. Just 2 weeks ago, I could do around 50 steps. Stairs are now almost impossible. I have always been very strict about doing all of my stretches and exercises, but my legs have just become so tight. I don’t understand why this is because I’ve always read that Cerebral Palsy is non progressive. I’m now using a wheelchair constantly, when I’m not at home. As I just have a manual wheelchair and don’t

It felt amazing!

Freedom Yesterday me and my boyfriend went out to the bowling alley. It was my first proper go of my new electric wheelchair. Before this outing, I had only driven it round my garden. It was the first time I’ve been able to move independently outside my home for a few months (since I lost my independent walking). I felt so free. Being able to drive next to my boyfriend and look at him when talking felt so good. I was also so much more comfortable in my new chair, than my manual and didn’t experience any pressure sores.  I am so excited about going out on more outing with my new wheelchair. I will give you a more detailed review in my next blog. Thanks for reading  Chloe x
