??? I remember the very first time I walked by myself. My sister Alexis was in high school then. She was on the basketball team, and she was going to take me to her practice.

I would try to walk to the ? ? ? door.

? ? ? else was at home, so I had to do it by myself. I was a little afraid, but I wanted to do it, so I pushed up off the arms of my wheelchair and ? ? ? . There wasn't going to be anything for me to hold on to 。? ? ? if I leaned over(倾身) to catch the table, I would fall.

I was so ? ? ? I'd made it that far. I ? ? ? to the sky and said, “Thank you.”

I stayed there for a minute. I was hoping I wouldn't have anything wrong with my ? ? ? , so I practiced? ? ? it a little bit, and then I started across the living room. I looked straight ahead, and I made it to the next wall, and I said “? ? ? ” again. Then I had to walk just ? ? ? more steps to get to the door — and I did it! I said, "I made it, I made it, thank you!" I looked out to see where Alexis was. She was driving to the house. She was so surprised? that I was standing there waving at her. She laughed ? ? ? and gave me a great big hug.
