My Name is Chelsea Elizabeth Harris. I am 22 years old and I have never done a blog before. This shall be a very interesting experience for us all. I was born in Honolulu Hawaii where I lived for 3 years. I then moved to Kearns Utah, St George Utah and I just spent the last ten years in Carbondale Illinois. Now I am back in St. George currently studding at Dixie. I am still currently exploring my options as to what I want to be when I grow up. However I am leaning towards Occupational Therapy. (Not a program offered by Dixie). :-(
While growing up my family was very involved in the foster system and I have gained more experience than I care to admit with all kinds of children with all kinds of backgrounds. Because of this I have a very large and very abnormal family. We try to keep in touch with as many of them as we can. The most challenging and my favorite experiences where in Carbondale where we only took in children with brain and spinal injuries. I got to meet so many wonderful people with such tragic stories and because of this is the reason why i am leaning towards occupational therapy. I love being around these kids and I love helping them.

I appreciate your bravery. You'll find approaches in this class that will relate to being an OC. Glad to have you with us.
ReplyDeleteBig difference between Carbondale Illinois and Saint George. I am very impressed with your outreach for children with brain and spinal injuries! Someone with that kind of compassion will be successful with whatever you chose to do.
