"My Supports."____________________
Describe
factors in your daily environment that are supportive to you, including the
ways in which these factors provide support. : I am a person who needs to live
in a very clean environment due to my allergies. I have to vacuum all the
time. I have weekly help with
cleaners to help keep my allergies at bay. I have the ability to drive and I
have the use of my car at any time I need to go somewhere. I have my own
checking account and access to monies. I have access to a computer and
technology. I am able to dress my self. I have the abilities of my limbs. I
have sanity of my mind. I have my own room. My mom lives with me I have someone
to talk to and care about me. I
have my animals, which provide me affection. I the ability to get an education
and learn.
Describe what you see as the benefits of these supports. Having a clean home helps keep me
healthy. Having a job provides me monies to pay the people to clean. Having the
ability to drive helps give me freedom to enjoy things and provide for my self.
Having my Mom present helps me emotionally. I love having my animals they are a
gift. Having a sound foundation contributes to my health and well being.
How difficult would it be to exist without these supports? Monies
give you the power to take action on things- without financial support it would
be difficult and weak. Family gives you emotional support. A safe and clean
home provides me with stable place to lay my head and call home shelter they
are all foundational pieces to help me be strong.
What impact would
they have on your life if they were gone? If the following supports were not in
my life I would be impacted. I think having a sound family allows for you to go
forward strong in life. Being able to have monies helps you across the board in
being able to things. If no monies where present then I would be greatly
limited. If my family or animals they be an emotional void. Each of the mention
above contributes and balances my life and is tailored so I may function at my
best.

the challenge you chose to imagine and the thoughts you have with regard to
supports you would want and need. Again, describe factors within your daily
environment would be supportive to you, including the ways in which these
factors would provide support. Describe what you see as the potential benefits
of these supports. How difficult would it be to exist without these supports?
The impact they would have on your life if they weren’t there? A challenge
would be no limbs. I would not be able to work. I would not be able to drive. I
would not be able to use technology. My animals would provide love. My family
would nurture. I would mentally be very challenged. Having a health insurance to help support me would be vital.
I would have to really on public monies and or support systems and not being
independent would be a great challenge for me. The ability to exist would be a
daily struggle where I would be relied upon many individuals to help support me
to simply exist.
You have a very unique support system. I love it, it was something that I didn't expect. It is great that you have everything that you need to live happily and comfortably. I bet it is a joy to have your mom living with you because just being able to talk to my mom everyday is a blessing.
ReplyDeleteWow!
ReplyDeleteI liked that your post was very much simple, organized and to the point. I almost wanted to revise my blog post and try again. In a similar situation to yours I have my mother and father in law living in our household and I see them as good supports some days with the cleaning of the house and the fixing of the house and other days not so much but then again they may think of me in the same way of how I support them within the household.
Jordann,
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed reading your post this week. Being in a clean enviornment and having love and support from within your home does help. Sounds like you too have a great support system.
