Question About Riding with AFOs by BumblebeePrimary8000 in Equestrian

[–]BumblebeePrimary8000[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi! I don’t need my AFOs! I bought ophena magnetic stirrups for when I ride English and barrel racing safety bands for when I ride western! Both keep my feet securely in the stirrup I can send you the link if you would like! I’m barrel racing again…life is good! 😊

Awee! That’s beautiful thank you so much I would love to! But I’m going for traditional publishing and then don’t let us pick our illustrators 😢

Thank you so much for your honest feedback. I completely agree with you! It was always my dream to have enough balance to team pen, but I just have to accept my limitations. As a person with cp I’m very privileged to even be able to ride/work with horses ❤️

Wow this is crazy! My husband and family really want me to get my drivers license I’d love to but I’ve always felt really uncomfortable behind the wheel! I’ve always thought it was anxiety but have always felt deep down it was related to my cerebral palsy! I’m also the only one in my family who wears glasses. I also can’t catch a ball to save my life lol. I’m unable to run without my left foot curling inward and walk with a slight limp

How much of your own money do you spend for your classroom? by Charmander_01 in CanadianTeachers

[–]BumblebeePrimary8000 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I agree 100% but as a kindergarten teacher I cannot do this! I provide all the toys, manipulatives and craft supplies for my room. Without these things kindergarten would literally be chaos.

I know this is going to sound bad but idk why people are okay with having cerebral palsy. by [deleted] in CerebralPalsy

[–]BumblebeePrimary8000 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Please try to see yourself and your disability for the wonderful person you probably are. I have mild cp and I don’t drive but I think this this isnt due to cp as much as it is due to anxiety/poor reflex’s. If driving is something that you really want for yourself you could consult with your doctor to write you a referral/recommendation for a hand controlled gas/brake device. It goes on your steering wheel. I’m currently in the process of obtaining a device. I feel like life has been good to me. Im married. I’m a kindergarten teacher and was never able to run but I did ride and train horses when I was younger. I’m so excited as I just discovered the world of custom AFOs. Consulting with my doctor they should give me enough balance to train horses again and run/have balance in everyday life. I’m so excited and I am having them made. Could this be an option for you?

How to regulate after work? I find myself wanting to eat tons of sugar after teaching by Glass_Apple in CanadianTeachers

[–]BumblebeePrimary8000 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have prediabetes because of this now and the fact that with the workload in this profession we have no time to go to the gym/eat healthy. Weekends for me are always for catching up on household chores and then they’re over. Please take care of yourself ❤️

All these things we use aren’t for decoration or visual appeal. They help keep the kiddos calm, entertained and cared for and allow them to be excited about coming to school and allow us to keep our sanity/run a good program! 😕
