1. Losing my father (2011)
2. Flunking out of college on two occasions (2007-2008, 2013-2014)

Being diagnosed with Muscular Dystrophy at age 7 (2001 - 2002) everything in my entire family suddenly changed forever and I'm not the only one who's affected there's also my younger brother and lately in 2019 we found that two young cousins also have it.
I guess besides that I can also count my first college experience (2011) which sucked and I just left it and switched to another college in 2013. Basically the first was with manual wheelchair which meant no confidence or independence and no friends and the other was with my mobility scooter and some confidence, independence and a few friends. I probably was more mentally prepared the second time. It's silly how a silly device can do a lot independence wise, I always had the scooter but the first college wasn't wheelchair accessible, well the second too but they put all the classes in the ground floor.
