If humans had taglines, what would yours be?
If I tell you that Cyril is the name I use to describe my cerebral palsy, this tagline should make sense.
Naming my cerebral palsy helped me to separate it from myself, and find who I am outside of my disability. But I still often feel trapped by my disability, though I’m trying to make the best of my life.
It’s hard living your life knowing that you will never get to live the life you feel like you should have had, and knowing there’s nothing I can do to get that life.
If I’m being completely honest with myself, I feel like my disability robbed me of a better life. And logically that’s just sad.
Sometimes all you can do in life is the best you can do, and that has to be enough, I guess.
My Inaccessible Life 
I love the idea that you gave a name to your disability. I guess I will have to find a name for my upsetting autophobia.
But I must tell you that your post has really inspired me and soo many other people that will come across your post.
I think being able to inspire other people is the most courageous and fulfilling life to live😊

Thanks for the support. I have to say I don’t agree with you but it’s a choice to live your life the way you want to. That said I would prefer to be seen as inspiring if I do something inspiring, not just for existing.

Thank you for this interesting post. It’s so inspiring and you sound like a positive minded person. Throughout my life I have not let my CP get in the way but at times it can be difficult as I’m sure you know.
