Hi! My name is Ashley. I am 18 years old and so far, I have beaten a lot of odds. I was born with a very rare neurodegenerative disease called Ataxia-Telangiectasia (A-T). I was able to walk up until I was 8 yrs old, The -doctors gave me a life expectancy of 10 years old, Like I said, I have beaten the odds so far!
A-T affects my fine and gross motor skills which makes it hard for me to talk, walk, read and write.
Even though I have been confined to a power chair for 10 years, it doesn’t stop me from dreaming! I am really active even though I can only be in a wheelchair.
