Giving birth to wheels?

My mom is all about compassion for the next honest person. A question that is asked to every single mother, often asking their parents for permission whether it is asking for money, or asking for permission to date. Now that I have finally reached college, and academically taking control my life, yet I still have to have my mom be my driver. I matured, more than my peers at my age. I couldn't take driving for granted;I have to ask my mom to do more things than most, I honestly sometimes feel bad for doing it.

My choices were very limited. My loving mother would drive me to practice, take me to organized basketball coaching meetings and games all over Northern Michigan. Not one time did she deny my equal participation; she knew for me being a part of something was important for that extra connection of accetance I would feel with a team.

Why?.. It was my release she knew I would never go out and party on a Friday night, because obviously she was my main source of transportation. My mom knowing that my Friday nights were consumed with the excitement of the upcoming game. So in a way with me being in a wheelchair she knew it was my time to be a kid, but still, learning lessons of life.

My mom is all about compassion for the next honest person, once she gains someone trust she will bend over backwards, twist and turn her for common good. That's where I get a lot of my loyalty, and determination to help others.

My mom just wakes up, and she even thinks about herself and it always will evolve helping my sister and me. I can't say that she is the prototypical mother, not the baker or the sewer, but my mom is on a higher standard then just a prototypical mother; she’s simply phenomenal.
I would never go as far to say that she is the best, I will simply leave that up to others, however I can tell you I’d NEVER want a perfect mom if that isn’t my mom Joyce. My moms gave me the motivation, encouragement and love to be a great humble person.

My mom knows it's definitely a different way for me to get dressed, and forcing longer time constraints. So without even asking she will lay everything out and even assist me getting everything on correctly; making sure I’m organized.

I found that when you have children parents find out a lot about each other and their child. My mom a new that I will take extra patients, and that need more help with daily activities and most moms would ever think about.

It's true I take longer getting in the shower; the preparation is so tedious making sure I don't step the wrong way on a puddle and fall. My mom Joyce was always there, and remains there without a doubt. The sad part about it is most don’t have good mothers, yet here I am with all the unique challenges and a loving act that she carries herself with is amazing, I had my own legs taken for reasons that only God or spirits possess, but I owe my mom my heart.


When someone like this so important you it's hard to end. Each parent has meant so much to me. My mom has just done so much it’s hard to summarize exact to what she's meant. I could look at this blog over and over but she just does things so routine, that no other mother would know. How many times has your mom told you too plug in your wheelchair? Comparing her too any other moms would not be fair for her or the mom in comparison.
My mom got an annual award, because she was nominated by my sister were being mother of the year. This wasn't a handicap award for sympathy from me or her it was just an average looking woman doing extraordinary work.

This proves that this woman was not extraordinary, because of having me; she was born to be a mother. With or without me she had this motherly nature about her. One day I remember she was cleaning, and I said “Mom it looks great” She said “Your grandma did it this way; I will too.” That showed me no matter how old you are, no matter what your problem is, your mother approval is essential.

So you're my mom on the ground and she was much older now. She didn't have to pay homage to her mother but she did. It was certain my mom had become a role model of mine and nothing to take that away. That moment of reassurance, I now knew that my mother was right with the same ideals of always trying to honor her mother, by keeping the old traditions.
It just proves that even my mom looks to guidance within her mother, even though she had passed on, so I knew a way to honor my mother was too just to do little things to make sure she knows I was thinking about her.

I was never her baby with a handicap just her, Loggybear and so I let her keep her nickname for me because I understand. Your always looking for that motherly nature and she never fails me. People often want to know just how she got so good at looking past the wheelchair and not treating me any different. My mom is all about compassion for the next honest it's just who she is.

Thanks Mom

Peace Dudes

Spring Break at last!
