Surprised, I asked, "You want to show people?" "Yes," she replied, excited about how well she depicted the moods.
I asked her if it she wanted it posted here on the homeschool blog. She replied, "Yes. It's fine for you to post it and it's OK if people know I have bipolar because it might help someone. I mean, we can't be the only family living with this, right?"
With that decided, Alexis made this collage.
I'm very proud of this because
- She's hoping to help others
- It shows that she's actively using her cognitive abilities (we've been working on this lately)
We'll call this:The Cycle.

Happy Homeschooling!
That is just so sweet that she wants to share to help others.
ReplyDeleteI thought so too. It's not the easiest thing to have or to live with.. it would be easy for her to just not want to tell anyone.
ReplyDeletePrecious. I admire her courage and wisdom for a young girl! And I do love the picture too.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Silvia! She was excited to see it posted here. I'll pass along your words to her.
ReplyDeleteI think it is brilliant of her :) Brave for her to share, but brilliant the way she has expressed it!
