A DeafDisabled That’s Thankful For Being Alive

I was born almost 2 and  half months early in an elevator at the hospital in Billings, MT. Pretty cool?There were complications after I was born, my left lung was collapsed that I needed an oxygen to help me to breathe. I only weighed 3 lbs and had few seizures during my stay at the hospital. The doctors thought that I wouldn’t make it as they were surprised that I made it. My parents found out that I was deaf and have mild hemiplegia cerebral palsy on my left side when I was about 1 year old.

I have accomplished a lot of things in my life for examples:

I graduated from high school, community college and the only deaf university in the whole world in Washington D.C. and it is Gallaudet University!!

As for my hobbies, I love to watch faith-based movies, listen to Christian music with my hearing aid while I read the lyrics on YouTube, and read some books.

I am forevermore grateful for God that gave me a purpose to live on the earth and gave me an amazing parents, siblings and few friends that loves me for who I am.
