“I've learned to cope with my disability. I've come to terms with the fact that I have fetal alcohol syndrome. I had spent my whole life feeling sorry for myself, going 'why did this happen to me' and blaming my mother for it, because she drank. But blaming others for it wasn't going to make it easy. Now I'm actually in a position where I can help others with their disabilities because I can relate to them.
