about

My name is Devin Lindsey or Vinny as my sister calls me! I am 17 years old and go to Bethel Park High school. I loooove swimming along with dancing, singing, and playing softball. I also run varsity track with is alright i supose too.


My favorite colors are orange, pink, and blue. I love to be crazy and have a good time

I've had a job working for 15+ monthes so I can answer alot about that

and I know alot about relationships in general so I can be helpful with that sometimes

especially with parent child relationships


I am a very observant person and tend to know more and care about more than most my age


and I really believe in volunteering to help animals especially at shelters. Usually its not their fault that they have to live their and its usually horrible cercimstances that bring them there and I feel terrible that they can't speak for themselves and people are too caught up in spending like $500 on this cute little pure breed puppy from a breeder just into getting rich instead of giving one of these dogs another chance at life (there are usually a handful of dogs under a year old so the i want a puppy excuse doesn't work with me)

My baby is named Lainey Mae... we got her from a shelter about 2 hours away from us when she was 7 weeks old. she is now 2 years old and the center of our family. unfortunately someone was cruel enough to go down and drug up and shoot (but luckly not kill) most of the dogs plus rob the owner (just like someone did at the shelter where I volunteer) and its now shut down

Hey! 14/f/california w/ "Mild" Cerebral Palsy in Both legs.

So, I really want to get into a sport,preferably a team. I am not in a wheelchair i can walk and run(pretty well). I would rather not be on a team for disabled people, but that might be might be kind of cool, i guess. I already horseback ride and i have been my whole life.
I was thinking about archery, because i have done that before in PE. But is that done on a team? So i Guess i am just looking for segestions on team sports that i could do that dont invole to much running.

Also, i am going to be a freshman this coming year an it would be nice to be on a school team but if not thats alright.
Thanks so Much to any one who tries!

What about softball? there was a girl in my sisters league for a first time who had cerebral palsy and couldnt even stand up on her own but they basicallly sat her down on the pitchers mound and let her catch ground balls (of course this was slowpitch)

but softball is alot less running than it looks besides some conditioning done off the field. but even if your community has slow or fastpitch re. leagues that would be a good oppertunity. school team might not be a good idea just yet beacuse conditioning off the field can sometimes be tough but I'm sure your coach will understand

I would say there at atleast 3 positions that require little to know movement at all that would be perfect and easy (pitcher(in slow unless you wanna take fast pitch lessons), catcher and first base)



I've been playing softball since i was 5 and it is a very addictive sport that i hope yuo can grow to love



also you could look in to riffle. all i know about the sport is you shoot a gun to hit a target but i think you might even be laying down for that?
