Happy Birthday U.S.A.
by Sarah Lane
*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-
The fourth of July is a special day
to remember those lives that were taken away.
Our Founding Father’s fought so hard,
for freedom to be our country’s heart.
Every one of the 13 colonies,
agreed upon the idea of equality.
No matter how hard the times did seem,
they refused to give up on the American Dream.
1776 marks the start of Democracy,
for the home of the brave and land of the free.
After Declaring our Independence,
life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness,
combining with the Constitution,
the United States became an institution.
American flags in red, white and blue,
announced the fact all men were equal.
Stars and stripes now in the wind flail,
so we can recognize what America entails.
Happy July 4th Holiday

- Injury Description, Date, extent, surgical intervention etc: I am ROBPI, global injury, Horner's Syndrome. No surgery but PT started at 2 weeks old under the direction of New York Hospital. I wore a brace 24/7 for the first 11 months of my life. I've never let my injury be used as an excuse not to do something. I've approach all things, in life, as a challenge. I approach anything new wondering if I can do it. I tried so many things I might never have tried, if I were not obpi. Being OBPI has made me strong, creative, more determined and persistent. I believe that being obpi has given me a very strong sense of humor and compassion for others.

- Injury Description, Date, extent, surgical intervention etc: LOBPI. I am 77 yrs old and never had a name for my injuries until 2004 when I found UBPN at age 66.
My injuries are: LOBPI on upper body and Cerebrael Palsy on the lower left extremities. The only intervention I've had is a tendon transplant from my left leg to my left foot to enable flexing t age 24 in 1962. Before that, my foot would freeze without notice on the side when wearing heels AND I always did wear them at work "to fit in" I also stuttered until around age 18-19...just outgrew it...no therapy for it. Also suffered from very very low self esteem; severe Depression and Anxiety attacks started at menopause. I stuffed emotions and over-compensated in every thing I did to "fit in" and be "invisible". My injuries were Never addressed or talked about until age 66. I am a late bloomer!!!!!
I welcome any and all questions about "My Journey".
There is NO SUCH THING AS A DUMB QUESTION.
