I don't mind you asking at all. I realize I've been quiet about my handicap here (I don't like the word disability because it implies not being able to do things and I definitely am able to do many things!) but there's really no reason for my silence. I guess I felt that it was kind of irrelevant, but it's definitely not something I'm ashamed of or wish to hide by any means. I was born with a birth defect called spina bifida- the Wikipedia page provides a lot of information, as well as sacralagenesis (missing part of my sacrum, part of the spine but not the same as spina bifida) which I think accounts for the short stature. It can be annoying at times but there are also some advantages to being short! I agree with you that it means so much for my fiance to look past my handicaps and love me for the person I am. Klinkman and I look out for each other, and we thrive on taking care of and being there for the other person. What ultimately ties us together so strongly is our innate understanding of each other- no one gets us and all our little quirks like we understand each other. It really is a beautiful thing. But yeah, that's the information about me! I hope that clears things up! Thanks for asking and I apologize for not "outing" myself, lol.
