Hello everyone,

 

I am Nidhi, and I am deeply grateful that you are visiting my website. Whenever I stumble upon a new website, I always feel intrigued to learn about the person behind the content. So, let me share a bit about my journey:

 

I was born with a condition known as cerebral palsy, which was caused by the umbilical cord wrapped around my neck during my birth. Growing up, I rarely interacted with other children who also had disabilities, which often made me feel isolated. It's still somewhat surreal to think that I graduated high school nearly two decades ago.

 

During my time at a center for individuals with disabilities, I realized that I was not alone. There are various forms of disabilities, and a large community of people who, like me, were also navigating life with these differences.

 

Fast forward to 2015, I decided to dive back into the world of education and enrolled in college. Much like other students, I experienced highs and lows throughout the journey - even coming close to dropping out at one point. I'm elated that I persevered, eventually achieving my degree a few years ago. Interestingly, about ten months before completing my college journey, I received an offer to work at a nonprofit organization. This job allowed me to harness my personal experiences as an individual living with a disability. Over time, I have had the opportunity to meet a myriad of remarkable individuals.

 

I welcome you to browse through my blog page, where I will share insights from the disabled community. Topics will range from exploring the concept of being unbreakable, shedding light on my experiences with pain and others' pain (not in the way you might initially think), navigating college as a student with a disability, building relationships as a person living with a disability, and much more. I will share these insights in the hope that they can make a difference in your life. My life is not tougher than others'; it's simply a unique narrative in the collective narrative of the world.

Please note that in my blog posts, I am not claiming expertise on the subjects I write about – I'm just like you, a human trying to navigate this journey we call life. If you wish to connect with me, you can reach out at unbreakablens@gmail.com
