This is my life. It’s all that I know. Friends have said they think I’m so brave for just living my life, when I’m just living my life the best I can… just as they are.

I can’t take a single step without being scared that I will tumble and smash my teeth into the floor. I sometimes feel like I’m spiraling downhill with no end in sight.

I have FSH Muscular Dystrophy, and I’m just scared.

“Courage is being scared to death, but saddling up anyway.”
