Hey Ryan. Welcome to steemit and thank you for sharing your story. I have been born with a physical disability and I know that feeling when you stop caring about your diagnosis. I just recently had the epiphany that a diagnosis is just a category other people give you. It mostly gives them a way to deal with diversity but it should not limit the individual. So I am challenging all my beliefs and boundaries and really growing.
I just clicked the follow button and am looking forward to reading more of you. Especially your poetry for I write poems myself.
You can find my latest poem here.
