About
Some years ago my life changed. I was an active woman, running a house hold, working a full time job, attending several kinds of interesting courses.
After a sudden and unfortunate accident I lost some of my independence and realized that I need help.
I was badly injured.
Thanks to my husband and children, I did not lose hope.
In a silent but a strong manner they told me: "We're not giving up on you". Then I decided I wouldn't give up either. I decided to fight, not to sit around and cry but to take action. It wasn't easy, there were bad times and then there were good ones. I made up my mind that I would live, not only physically but also mentally. Nowadays, I lecture, paint, sculpture, read books and so on.
My trade mark is a turtle. Why? Let me explain.
A turtle walks slowly but it is determined to reach its goal. Similarly, a crippled person who is "flawed", struggles to reach his destination and doesn't give up, wil eventually succeed.
During my time in the rehab center, I took part in afternoon activities such as bead work, painting and sculpture.
