In reply to Jenny. Ollie, you are such an inspiration to so many! Thank you for writing your blog, I hope the younger Fopers are reading it, because it might inspire them to greatness! Lots of the time I feel that I didn’t push my Sara enough and now I feel she has just given up, I wish I had done more when she was younger because Fop has now ravaged her poor body terribly. You are a wonderful writer!

In reply to Ash DoRozario. Thank you so much ash! That’s why our work in the group is so important. Hopefully we will get to a point one day when disability will be normalised, and we will all be celebrated for being individuals - whatever our story is! Glad you enjoyed

Oh Ollie, you are incredible. Disability can be horribly lonely, especially when people exclude you, either actively or passively. It is something I constantly struggle to reconcile and accept. Your comment that you sometimes feel so dependent on others but unable to help them in return, also struck a chord with me. But at the same time, my very first thought is that you do help others. You are brave. You are open and honest about your experiences, and you have such a positive outlook on life (despite those inevitable dark moments) that you shine. I can’t help but be inspired by you. But more than that, when I see photos of you, I smile – every time! It is because you are so genuine – your kindness and positive attitude shines through, and is so infectious it makes me happy. I love this blog. Keep up the great work!

Also, triple cream brie is my all time weakness too! *drool*
