Beating the odds
Lindsay Folland wasn't supposed to make it this far.
“When I was a child I was given a formal diagnosis that I would never be beyond an elementary school level,” she says. “I was told I am too socially impaired to have any meaningful relationships and I would need 24-7 support to bathe, dress, and eat.”
However, the people who told her these things, she says, were “thankfully and obviously not psychic."
Lindsay has been in what she says is a loving relationship for two years now, and has been employed for almost three years in the field of mental health.
