Canes Enable Free write

p.s. if you want to know why i am posting again its because i found some spelling mistakes and i wanted to improve it a little bit.

My thoughts on canes enable were, I never knew there were so many different canes for different illnesses. When Laurence came in with his purple t-shirt and black shorts and his leg I didn’t know what was happening. When he took off his leg and he showed us all the things he could do. It was amazing, I learned so much from him. On his life and his perspective and it makes you think how lucky you really are.

At the end I asked Laurence do you ever think it’s unfair why you have this cancer? And are you jealous when you see other people with two legs? He told me yes, I do think it’s unfair. But I am grateful that I’m alive and healthy.

I learned so much from him like: what places are accessible and what it was like for him to grow up with a prosthetic leg. Or how much it cost (a lot) or if you gain weight it hurts because you would have to change the leg to his size. What bothered me was when he said he applied for jobs and some people didn’t accept him because of his leg.

What surprised me was that he was so open and he does so many things. Like skiing, dancing, and he travels to so many places.

When I heard him talk abut accessible places. I was like aren’t all places accessible. Then I realized I was wrong and if I were to change things about a school it would be. Elevators, ramps, and more handicap parking.
