Ah! I'm sorry! I thought I explained who Conner is earlier, but I guess that was in an e-mail. Conner is the younger of my two brothers; he'll be thirteen in September. Conner has cerebral palsy and consequently cannot walk, use his right arm, or talk. He can talk, but he doesn't form many words. He can say "Dada" and "Mum" and some other easies. Although his body is crippled, his brain isn't as far as we know. Just because he can't speak doesn't mean he cannot express his emotions and awareness. He is intelligent though not book-smart, and he can be really funny. It's weird for others that my brother is handicapped, but I'm used to it. For me this is normal. It's been difficult sometimes, but everything is sometimes, so it's not tragic or anything. Some people think of his disabilities as a tragedy, something to be pitied, but it really isn't. It was unfortunate, but not regretful. You can't regret someone not being perfect because none of us are. We all have things to overcome, and this is his. I don't mean to
