Atorien

I’m Atorien. I'm 30 years old and the middle child and have two brothers. My parents were in the military and I've moved a lot but mostly lived in Virginia.

I have a teacup yorkie named Marley. I love to read books and watch movies. I was born two months early and had a seizure at three weeks and was diagnosed with cerebral palsy. I have spastic CP and have been in a wheelchair all my life. I started a book club and a meetup group to meet with other people with disabilities because we have shared experiences. I wish people would understand we didn’t choose our disability so we want to be included.
