Dream to take first steps unaided

Welcome to my journey. My name is Shauney, I suffer with cerebral palsy, I was born 11 weeks early a long with my twin sister, she was born perfectly fine (apparently). Growing up I had lots operations on my legs to help strengthen them along with physio. It was hard growing up watching my sister go out, playing and running around. I couldn't always keep up and stayed in alot, Unfortunately the operations only helped for a while. Day to day life is a challenge for me as having cerebral palsy makes my muscles tight so I can only walk so far before I get tired and the pain sets in. I sometimes struggle sleeping at night as the spasms in my legs can be very painful and keep me awake. I can take painkillers but these don't always work. I have set up this page as I want to make my dream of walking unaided along side my twin sister a reality and it will make day to day life alot easier for me, also I will hopefully be able to do more things such as walking for longer so I may able to walk my dog this is a very important goal for me as I get frustrated because I can not walk her so I have to rely on my family. I am willing to do anything it takes to achieve my dream. This life changing operation is called Selective dorsal rhizotomy (SDR)http://www.leedsneurosurgery.com/sdr This link will explain what it involves and what your vital donations will help me achieve. Thank you for taking the time to read my story.
