Do you consider yourself courageous?
I do consider myself to be be courageous. Living with Duchenne muscular dystrophy has forced me to have courage. If I spent my life cowering in the face of this scourge of a disease, I would be incapable of seeing the joy of life, and would lead a miserable existence. Having courage does not mean that I never have fear. I just don't let fear get the upper hand. Fear is a part of being human.
