ANOTHER AWARD & A BUSY LIFE

I have had a busy few weeks so that it time to update my blog with some of what I have been doing.

Last month was awarded the Rising Star Award for my poetry writing at the Young Scotland "Scotland's Got Talent" Award. You can see what they said about me on You Tube, just search under "Adam Bojelian" (unfortunately I wasn't very well on the day, which is why I have my eyes closed). I was presented with the award by my old friend Scotland's Commissioner for Children and Young People Tam Baille.

Last month I also spoke to Labour MSPs at the Scottish Parliament. I prepared what I wanted to say before hand on my iPad, so I could use my iPad voice, as I didn't think it would be very easy to give a talk to them by blinking. I told them about my life and especially about things like the fact I am still waiting after a whole year to go to school; and the fact that I wish doctors would talk to me when I visit them. The MSPs really liked my talk and said they learnt alot from me. I do hope they did.

I have also spent some time in hospital which was not fun, but I am feeling much better now.

I was on holiday in London for a week with my mum and dad. I particularly liked going on a tour of Chelsea Football Club and visiting the Wimbledon Tennis Museum.

At the moment I am keeping very busy travelling backwards and forwards to Bobath in Glasgow. It is hard work, but very worthwhile. I'll tell you more about what I am doing there in my next blog.
