Making Up My Own Mind
Hi everyone, I have a meeting on Tuesday. It's largely to do with the way I want to go forward in life. I have no sense of balance due to the removal of a brain tumour in 1974 - when I was three. In the future, I may want to move. I don't want to end up in a place that I don't want to be in. I want to go where I want to go…
