I believe it was the state of Illinois that paid for the ten-thousand dollar lift that gets me from the ground up to the first floor, which is about twelve feet. And, the city of Chicago came in and did $10,000 grant—they took out the bathtub, put in a roll-in shower, widened three or four doorways, so my wheelchair could fit in instead of just squeaking through. And, ever since then, it's been really, I'm just really blessed to be in Chicago. I just thank everyday that I wake up that I'm here, and I have great friends and being able to live on my own.
