Hey everyone, Christina Brown here!
I’m going to let you know about the new things coming my way this year, in 2024 that have me so excited! In January, I got engaged to my best friend Chase! Chase and I met at Camp ASCCA back in the summer of ’15! Since Chase and I are getting married in November, my maid of honor and bridesmaids are taking me to the beach for my bachelorette trip in August!
I’m also attending a different session this summer at Camp ASCCA. I usually go to Session 4 (Teen Week,) but now that I have reached the age limit for Teen Week, I’ll be going to Session 6! I’ll miss teen week fun, but I will have the same amount of fun at Session 6, and Chase will be there too!
Another “new” thing I got in 2024 was a new wheelchair! I’ve been trying to get a new one for over 10 years since I was 16. I bought a used wheelchair off of Facebook Marketplace a few years ago to get me by until I got a new one, and now I finally have it and absolutely love it!
When I got it, the first thing that I wanted to do was to go to the zoo. Why the zoo, you may ask? When I go to the zoo, I’ve never been able to see the animals over the rails, but my new wheelchair has eye level, which will raise my seat so I can see over the rails. Speaking of the zoo, I have a friend on Facebook who has Friedreich’s Ataxia like me, and we haven’t gotten to meet yet, but we are planning a zoo trip this month. I can’t wait!
I have so much fun planned for 2024! I can’t wait!
