    I don’t think Ana see’s herself as disabled I think she see’s that she had challenges and she just finds ways to overcome them , Ana is an amazing positive young lady !! She will go far in life because of her attitude !!

    Ana was born that way. She knows no difference to compare. I admire her as a person.

    I remember you dancing in front of the tv and doing excersizing too. Mom has done so well with helping Ana accept her differences. Everyone has disabilities sometimes physical and sometimes mental.

    #replay I think kids with disabilities don’t know a different life. The parents’ attitude and involvement plays a lot into how the child see their life. As a pediatric PT I have worked with a wide range of disabilities and attitudes. You have done a great job developing Ana’s determination by encouraging her to try things before asking for help and not dwelling on things she can’t do. Treating her as a young human instead of a disabled/sick/scary child is so important. I’ve worked with kids whose parents have focused on “my poor child,” or treated them as so special they become little helpless kings/queens, as well as parents who treat them as a “normal” kid who has some special needs. The first tend toward “woe is me”; the second becomes arrogant and bossy. The third become the most adjusted, happiest, and successful.

    When I was a young child, my memories were experiences rich in love and support and I only knew that my body worked differently and I was born with CP and as you have said Ana knew no differently and knows things she can do and doesn’t always know what she can’t do until she discovers that she either can’t do it or needs more assistance to accomplish the goal! She has had great supporters and has had a can do attitude!

    Another thing that might work is having her watch a few of the clips of her running into problems earlier in life where she was trying to communicate with you what she wanted you to do to help something work like when she was trying to use a slinky to move her toys or something like that she wanted you to hold it or put it somewhere I think she wanted to basically have them her toys right on it so maybe if you watch a couple of the videos so you could just have her or have her see cause I think that she would say that and if you don’t understand your child or don’t know what they need just watch and listen he watchful in listening and they’ll communicate what they need you The best they can…
