Look at me, I’m a person I speak, feel, hear and think

That’s the title of my life story I self published on Amazon. Who am I? I’m Shawna Mattinson, I have Cerebral Palsy and that doesn’t stop me from living a normal life. I am a writer, blogger, and advocate for people with disabilities. If something is really important to me or makes me mad, I will send a letter to the mayor or the premier. I play wheelchair hockey and soccer on the weekends. I really love working out because it keeps me mobile and independant. Whenever I get something in my mind I go for it! I love swimming and I found an across the okanagan lake swimming event and decided to give it a go. I completed it two years ago and I am planning on doing it again next summer.

I have a website with links to my book and blog if you want to check it out!
