I first had physical therapy at 27‚ after I slipped on an icy Montreal sidewalk and tore the ligaments in my left ankle. I had it again at 42 and 43‚ after surgery on my right and left knees‚ and most recently I’ve had it on both shoulders. My orthopedist likes to say surgery is half the battle.

is okay because I know that they are there for me through thick and thin. This person I am talking about was there from the beginning and when I say the beginning I mean the very beginning. Even before I was born she was there. She fed me and talked to me. You can only guess my mother by this point‚ because I mean who else would feed me before birth? She has and always will be my role model. My mother is a wonderful woman because she is strong‚ kind‚ and would do anything for me. Without my mom I

Mothers Are Angels I grew up in a middle class‚ single parent family in Ukraine. My mother had to work a lot to make some money for living. Even though we lived in a Democratic country‚ our government didn’t give any chance for people to improve their lives. Back then‚ I would have never imagined that someday I’ll live in America and be blessed with the opportunity to make my life the way I want it to be.

MY MOTHER My mother is the best person that I know. She is a very special person who has always been with me to support me. She is hardworking‚ cheerful and simple woman; she is a woman that despite all the complications she always has a big smile.

I know at times she yells at me and corrects me‚ but I know she does not do because she is evil‚ but because she loves me;

there’s one thing in life I continuously look for and cannot live without‚ it’s "inspiration." Nothing is worse than being demotivated‚ discouraged‚ and misunderstood by the one you love. With inspiration comes happiness from within‚ joy in activities you’ve never thought of doing‚ beauty in things you’ve never seen‚ and love in places your heart’s never been to. Since inspiration doesn’t stick around forever‚ it’s important to be with someone who inspires you. I want to be inspired to better a better
