The musings of a 40 something disabled Trekkie WRHS 30 YR Class Reunion attended September 30th, 2012 I went to the White River High School 30 Yr Class Reunion last night. This entry is copied from the WRHS 30 YR HS Reunion Event on Facebook, and will be also posted on my wall. Had a blast last night. It caused me to remember how much I really enjoyed HS and how different Elementary and Jr. High were for me. I was harassedddd and bullied (pushed into lockers, tacks in my chair, and the COMMENTS…) But, when I first got to White River, I was welcomed and greeted with no thought that I was disabled. You guys treated me like a PERSON. Everyone treated me like there was no disability. I was judged on other things, and I was accepted into theatre, managing the volleyball team, and Key Club (among other things that escape my recollection at the moment. You guys didn’t care that I walked funny, or that I took longer to get places. I was Dana, not “that freak who walks funny” or worse yet, “that retard”. I was asked to Homecoming, I was asked out on other dates. You guys treated me as an “equal”, ignoring the canes, crutches, and the slow walking. You didn’t think I was retarded or even better, disabled, didn’t treat me as such, and I’m so glad to count each and everyone of you as a friend. I was Dana, I just happened to walk funny and need help with some things and I would ask for that help. And it was freely given. Sometimes too freely, as I had to beat some of you guys off with a stick when it looked like I needed help when I actually didn’t. That too, I remember, with special fondness, even if I groaned at the time, because I thought I could do anything and really didn’t need help. EVERYONE needs help at sometime in their lives, I just needed it a lot sooner. If I couldn’t do something, solutions were found so I could participate. I fondly remember going to basketball games and cheering the Hornets on. Working on the Volleyball team as Manager and getting my Letterman’s Jacket (which I still have). Learning to drive and having the school buy hand controls so they could teach me. Then selling me the hand controls when the year ended. THAT was very cool when the Kiwanis club bought the controls for me after the semester. Again, I had a blast last night and I can’t wait for the next get-together, and I hope that those of us that live in area do get together more often than every 10 years. “oem software soft4download” Buy TuneUp Utilities 2008 oem student discount adobe softwareafter effects Buy Autodesk NavisWorks Review 2009 oem oem software team?emachine oem software Buy Microsoft Visual Studio LightSwitch 2011 oem casino full microsoft versionShareware vst verwendung oem software 407.
