It’s important to me that people learn from what I’ve experienced. I know that I’m never going to be standing on my own again - Education Support carried me when I couldn’t walk. Sometimes the scariest thing is reaching out, making that phonecall. But it really was a lifeline, by making those calls I’m still alive.
