My lovely Daughter Avery Eyram Awadzi is now 12 years old and thriving, her journey has taught us resilience. In our effort to support her to live and thrive I found myself, I discovered that I have a voice that could create a positive change in the world. I discovered Advocacy and advocacy has been a great tool to create the change we are looking for even in the tiniest of steps.
I am a mother of a child with cerebral palsy and now I tell people that mothering this child with cerebral palsy has changed and continues to change my life in the most positive way ever.
I give out empathy, I demonstrate love and I am not judgmental. In my country Ghana, we still have a long way to go in terms of Inclusion for persons living with cerebral palsy and their families but we continue to build resilience.
We take one step at a time, trusting, all the time that the Universe know the way
Cerebral Palsy affects us all in very different way and that is why we are all unique and united
