Thank you to all my friends, family, and readers for your continual support.

And a special thank you to my friend, Stephanie Hurzeler, who once said to me “Because I learned so much about disabilities from you, I wasn’t so afraid when I got my own.” If you didn’t say that to me, I don’t know that I would have had the courage to start this blog. Thank you for all your encouragement and support.
