Learning to walk again after a traumatic accident
Audio , Trauma , Disability , HopeSphiwe shares her difficult journey after a traumatic accident after which she was hospitalised for three months, had over 17 surgeries and left her with significant scars on her legs.
"I decided to acknowledge that I have my scars. They are actually permanent. So I had two choices, I could use them as a permanent reminder of how much pain I went through, or I could choose to use them as a permanent reminder of how I could love myself, regardless."
Listen as she tells the story of dealing with the grief of what had happened to her, learning to find her confidence, and developing the ability to walk again.
