It's An Objective Fact That I Am

The Idea Of Prosthetics Is A Tool. Most People's Cell Phones Are Prosthetics. If You Leave Your Cell Phone At Home, You Feel Impacted By Not Having It. It's An Important Part Of Your Daily Function And What You Can Do In A Day.

Half Of Hollywood Has More Prosthetic In Their Body Than I Do, But We Don't Think Of Them As Disabled. You Amputate Part Of A Nose, That's 'enhancement'. You Put A Prosthetic In A Breast Cavity, That's 'augmentation'. But You Amputate Part Of A Limb And Put A Prosthetic There, It's 'disability'?

An Athlete Experiences The Emotions Of Pain And Elation Through Triumph And Defeat, Through Teamwork And Individuality, As Nothing More Than A Human Being...that Is The True Glory Of Sport.

I Have Learned Not To Overlook The Advantages Of Being Me. From When I Was A Softball Player, And I Held The Stolen Bases Record. I Would Slide Into Second With My Prostheses, And The Girl On The Base Could Either Step Aside Or Meet Two Wooden Sticks.

When I'm Curious About Something, I Do It Full On And Take It As Far As I Go, But When I Feel Like I've Really Explored It, I'm Ok With Putting It Aside And Going On To Something Else.
