It seems so long ago. Eons ago. Yet, the day and the subsequent fight to figure out who I was amidst the labels given to me that day is still so fresh in my mind.
17 years ago, I was a happy 10 year old. I lost some spark that day, but today am a strong bumblebee - flying against the odds.
Not much to say, it's odd to look back on this day, now, as a thriving adult. Yet, I need to mark it, as it is such a crucial part of who I am today.

I love a good I can overcome this story. Good for you for all your hard work.
Such a great attitude, Tamar. Thanks for making us aware.

good for you for overcoming!
That's a lot to process for a child. I'm so glad you had support while trying to figure out how these things are a part of you but not who you are.
I think it's great that you took your challenges head on. Many would have used that as an excuse to not continue on with college & your chosen career. I think you have done fantastic at overcoming your hurdles!!
Thriving - I'll say. And throwing your heart and life into helping other youngsters do the same! I genuinely feel blessed to know you!
Good on you! You've come a long way, my friend, and you do wonderful work with the children ---probably in part due to all that you'd gone through. You seem to have a good grasp and understanding of how children learn and making it fun for them.
