Living with a disability


My name's Susan and I've been in a wheelchair since I had an accident. I was twelve years old. It happened when I was coming home. It was raining and I was crossing the street. A motorbike appeared at the end of the street. It was going very quickly. I didn't have time to react, and the motorbike didin't stop. I can't remember anything else. I only know that I woke up in a hospital, and I had to learn to use a wheelchair.
Now I'm working in a office. People are always helping me and I haven't got any problems with anybody. I think that my life is not like before, but I'm OK. I have to go in a wheelchair because in the accident I lost my feet and the operation wasn't successful. I can't walk but I can move my legs.
Sometimes people look at my feet and I feel bad because that is something that annoys me a lot. But there are a lot of people that are very nice with me and if I need something they always help me.
