The first time I met her, George, high school teacher Dr. JP Lord, in a small room just for a student and a teacher.
This room was later converted into classrooms for our four children, in which all three of them in a wheelchair and a baby walker. Each child in a wheelchair with a different story, one with gunshot injuries to the head, one with muscular dystrophy and cerebral palsy children. He left the students are blind, have a cane.
I am the person with cerebral palsy. When I try to pronounce, she teased me that George was my voice like the voice of the North American male deer are called lovers.
Learning needs and feelings of each of us is different, there are people prepared to go to college, there are people preparing for imminent death. Ms. George has done everything to help us, the first class of high school Dr. J. P. Lord this.
Ms. George is about 50 years old, just over a meter and a half high and a bit of her hair dew point (the end of the school year as silver hair that added); Her skin is slightly tan and voice in. She has a disability say very quickly, always ends his explanation by saying: "Do you understand?".
The first day we went to school, she welcomed us with smiles pedestal post:
- Hey you! This room is probably a bit cramped but okay, everything will be fine. This is the first school for special needs students like this in Nebraska, and we are the pioneers. Which leader is usually encountered little difficulty, should not they? She thought they had known each other all gone, apart from Bill and David. To her introduction, David, this is Bill. You were cerebral palsy. She had left school by the time they come around well before this school because no school system. And David came from the island of Hawaii and is muscular dystrophies. David will turn 19 years old on May 6 this. We'll have a birthday party for her dancers beautifully.
I wonder if she knows anything about George's illness is not David. David will not live up to his birthday anywhere. The disease has affected his lungs and breathing will be very difficult ...
- Now they go to know each other away.
- She hopes you very much, do you understand? - New ideal teacher told us so.
The other day, George came to me when she was doing my homework split rocks for geology courses. She sat down next to me and said:
- She heard that I had studied in school distance learning courses in Lincoln Nebraska three years ago but has not yet graduated, right? You know what that course is quite difficult and time consuming. But she will help you graduate in the spring of next year. I eat lunch with her today, okay? She said they are looking forward to graduation, but do not know how, right? I want to ask you add anything?
- I think this year could not make David's birthday is held where. Your lungs was too weak then. Winter cold this year perhaps more than a few years ago. - I said slowly every word of my alphabet and a pen is attached to the head, sort of like a rod worn on the head.
- We all know that. But David did not know. Like I would like to receive diploma, David also hope to cut the 19th birthday cake her so.
