So as you may know I've been very very sick for about 12weeks. Anyway I could barely leave my room for the past 7weeks. I couldn't eat solid food, couldn't stop vomiting, had horrendous full body pain. So anyway Ive had my surgery and so far so good. Tonight I calmly walked over 9000 steps. This is one of 2 walks I've done that aren't to the bathroom or down a hospital corridor. This is an amazing achievement for me and I hope it gives others confidence that there is hope and there are good days. God Bless you all or Love Peace and Good Vibes for my non-God believing wonderful friends and followers. Might pay for this tomorrow but wow it felt so good to move my body. Peaceful and under the stars down the beach.

Also, just because someone has mental health issues, doesn't mean they don't have goals and dreams and aren't capable of achieving them. Active sometimes it works in our benefit. If I wasn't they way I am I wouldn't have been able to get all my educational certificates in various sectors and be pregnant , sick, complications, repression, BPD, OCD, PTSD, more pregnancies.....4 children.... And actually it is a fact thus far (personally) that I haven't achieved anything educationally since not having my kids full-time. My mania came in handy to get through all the hard times as it gave me emotional endurance and the ability to see things differently and have a different attitude. I went 29 & 1/2 yrs at full capacity.... Then had a breakdown. Now I have to learn to rest, it's harder than doing stuff all time ...well sometimes. Anyway get help when you need help. Focus on getting to a point that you can be functional the best you can. Go a learn new skills and use your type of brain/disability as an advantage.

Today we were talking about feminism and issues that those who are abled differently face . These challenges are human challenges. I was so impressed by how powerful these women are . I am so humbled to have been in the convening . I remember when I brought a girl who was differently Abled to the amazing @conniealuoch And she did transformation to her . We call it EXTREME MAKEOVER. Now that girl is working for @safaricomplc_ I then spoke to Connie Aluoch about a girl living with albinism and she gave me the chance and she shot @lucy_nyawira as a fashion model. That visibility that we worked together to create opened doors for her until she landed a cover of @coutureafrica As I am talking to you today , Luciana Nyawira is working for @loreal in the Kenyan office . The office associated with @lorealmakeup . I Letoya Johnstone gave this beautiful fashion model her first runway catwalk and her first major photoshoot. I couldn't have done it with these amazing women and some exceptional men out here who listened to me . God bless you all. We really need to focus our eyes on our people living with disabilities because Human rights is everyone's rights . #DontDisMyAbility #dontdismyability Xo Xo Toy Toy baby - Kill it with love #letoyajohnstone With me is model @lucy_nyawira (at Nairobi, Kenya) https://www.instagram.com/p/B0bdW9jjRA5/?igshid=75hm7t01l387
