Adventures with Leslie
If you’re wondering if it’s too late, you’re too tired, or too set in your ways to try something new, consider this:
When Leslie came to my house sixteen months ago, she was taking the stairs on all fours.
Today, at sixty-one, she took her very first flight.
Over the last year, you’ve joined me on this journey of Leslie having many firsts, demonstrating extraordinary resilience:
> first identification card
> first time she said “I love you”
> first time taking MTA Mobility
> first time using an iPad
> first time making decisions about what she enjoys
All of this change has not been easy for her…in fact, it’s been very difficult, despite her persistent smile.
When we started the conversation about flying several months ago, she said, “NO!” …in all CAPS.
Today she is all smiles as she flies to New Mexico for a little time with other family members!
I hope Leslie’s determination and joyful smile bring you a smile during this week of thanks!!
