When I was two and a half, I went to the tutor group in beatrixoord. This was a new project within child rehabilitation. I was picked up by taxi by morning and at 13.00 I went home again. In larger lines there were children with a heavier or lighter form of disability. During the days I was in Haren, I was picked up two to three times a week by a physical therapist to do the first exercises. You can think of a simple exercise to try to sit down on the ground and believe me that was not really easy if you are spastic, apparently then I had so much perseverance that I almost never reluctantly went there because I would love to Everything wanted to get what was possible. My advantage was that my parents were behind me a thousand percent and helped me wherever they could. A step forward in my life. It was sometimes very difficult, but it was a goal not to stand still. I also went to the kindergarten in Wagenborgen, very much I found it there. The kids liked to play. Two years later, I went to mytyl school, a children's group with children like me who can not go to regular education. Soon they found out I could not write and I started with an occupational therapist to practice chalk. At first I had to draw rounds and, if I had mastered it, I had to draw two circles together, and that became more and more until they found out that writing to me was not really there. Then they decided to go ahead and see what I could possibly do. Once a week I went to the elementary school with us in the village. This because I wanted to get to know the children around. Because of course, I did not see that because I was in school at Haren. It was nice to go to the regular kindergarten. I got boyfriends, who also came home with me at home. In the meantime I was in class four and found out that I could write but with colors to get a picture. I had an alphabet on my table, each letter having a separate color. That way, I could make assignments with my own handwriting and I did not need any help, and the teacher or teacher could accurately see which answers I gave. That way I was able to get along with the lessons given. During the lessons I was regularly picked up to work on my condition to train and strengthen my body. My parents quickly realized how I developed but in one way or another I did not see it myself or did not want to see it.
I did not want to know what I was at the moment but that was what the doctors and teachers said. I had a lot of problems during my years at school because I had to go to the hospital for any research, so I missed a lot of school and my development was also very difficult. My parents always said "you have to look what you can" and do not look what I can not and I did and I was angry why I could not do certain things. School I found a nice time to learn and see where there were challenges to deal with both hands and show what I could, luckily I did not get up very fast and I often did not happen and I know Only now that it was really not smart to do but I did not want to show people how I felt. But I was kind of picking up at school very soon, a few years later, I received a typewriter from the school to better follow the lessons and I was very happy with this thing and I flew over the lessons and I had the taste that I picked up a lot of things and went to the teachers to learn more about what was in it and that was what the teachers and my parents noticed and then parents told me that it might be wise to I go to public school again one day a week to get back to the village children and to make friends to make my network bigger because I usually go home with a wheelchair taxi from home to school and of course. But there was a big disadvantage that you were actually isolated from the outside world at the time but for that reason, parents had arranged for me to go to elementary school. After a few years later, I was pleasantly surprised at home that we had a simple computer in our living room, it was a great purchase at the moment that I could still work for school and also had a nice rest for me in the rest Of the family. But in the meanwhile I still had a typewriter at school and that was a bit tricky because if I had a typo error halfway through one of the assignments I had to go back to the class again for an emergency and that was a few times I was done Along and after I was done and after consulting the teacher I received a class assistant to write for me, what I was telling. It worked very well, but there were disadvantages that I did not develop the Dutch language very well and found that it had to be addressed differently to better understand the language, but there was another important thing because I did not I can not write down the words well, I can not write the words well. Then they came up with an idea that I also had to have a computer at school and after months of consultation they gave me a computer, and that worked very well and the independence of my self was also many times bigger and in lessons it became more More attractive and funeral to answer the answers, how did I write the page and the question with a number and an answer, so I went through all the lessons in this way and my teachers were much easier to check. Unfortunately, due to my many absence in the classroom, I was already lagging behind my limitations, but I did not even care because when I got home I was writing letters or reading books how to write words and that I was very pleased My grandfather Bonno was also very committed to my destiny and he always thought of me something to think about me, which I could have used to develop. He bought simple but clear books for me, which I could use well for my language development. I also got a book "Windows for Mothers" ha ha, but I was able to work well, and I learned a lot. When I was seventeen I was allowed to go to school because I did not learn anything on the one hand and the other Side thought to me that it was time to try something else to get even more out of development and it was very important that I did not keep quiet and had to be encouraged to keep up with everything.
