Josh and I had our talk today with college class that was about his disability. Josh, his mom, and I sat for about 2hrs discussing his condition and what it's like living with it. I really only had a little tidbit at the end where I spoke, but I found it interesting to listen. I knew bits and pieces of the story but didn't know it from beginning to end. It was interesting to hear it from his and his mom's perspective. Once the talk was over, Josh and I went to a 5Below for junk food then headed home. We spent about an hour or so at home watching Men in Black together and eating the junk we bought. I really don't pay much attention to Josh's disability because I've gotten so used to being around it, but it's good to be reminded every once in a while of what his story is. He's a fighter and extremely determined. It reminds me how lucky I am to have him as my boyfriend. Josh is a great person all around, and I really can't find many flaws to complain about. Being with Josh makes me comfortable. I know I always have someone behind me to encourage me or keep me going in the right direction. I like to think I make him a better person, but I know for sure he makes me a better person. I don't really know where I'd be right now if it weren't for him. I feel like people may look at he and I as being an odd pairing because he's in a wheelchair, but it's such a unique relationship. You can tell we really love each other just by spending more than 60 seconds with us. I think everyone in the class appreciated what we had to offer and the insights given. And of course I had to tell them that Josh and I have a sex life, because what fun would it be if I didn't share that information? It's scientifically relevant of course.
