My Feet Are Beautiful

I’ve done a lot of posting and advocacy about my limb difference on my hand. But I haven’t focused much on my feet limb differences.

I’m still a little ashamed to show my feet, to be really honest. I’m getting to the point where I’m starting to see my feet as cute, but I’m pretty embarrassed about the yellow toenail fungus.

Toenail fungus is hard to treat, which a lot of people might not know. So I guess part of me is fearful of the judgments that my toenails look gross or that I don’t take good care of my feet. Which is not true. Thinking about it, though, those are also *self* judgments / fears I’m projecting onto other people’s *potential* reactions.

So, I’m challenging myself to talk about my feet more and not just my hand. My feet deserve to be focused on and included too when I talk about my Moebius syndrome!

They’ve carried me and supported me my entire life. And that’s a beautiful thing. They work so hard for me. Every day! I am grateful to them.

Also, having small feet has its benefits. My left foot is a child size 2, and my right foot is about half that size. So, I get to find and wear the cutest socks and shoes because I shop in the little girls section. Which works great because I love sparkly, rainbow, unicorn things!
