After many a sleepless night worrying, the “Health and Social Care” A-Level examination went fantastically well. Everything I hoped for came up on the paper. A question about the “Disability Discrimination Act 1995” was on there. Also one came up about Empowerment & Normalisation. The young woman in the case study was 18 and had Ataxic Cerebral Palsy, which is the same condition I have. What a coincidence, eh?
As you can imagine, I was in my element. The teacher and Mrs. Cooke were so happy for me. After the exam, the teacher said “Leigh, I bet you were chuffed with the questions, weren’t you?” I thought it was not too easy but not too difficult. It was easier than the past papers we were given to revise from anyway.
I was able to answer every question. I felt a little disappointed as I ran out of time at the end. The results are announced on March 13th. I’ll keep my fingers crossed for a C grade. Although I’d be happy with any grade, a C grade is a decent pass in my opinion.
My mum & I are off to a gig on the weekend to see a musician called Wilko Johnson. Have you heard of him? Nah, neither have we! I don’t know about him or any of his music. It’ll be like taking a leap into the unknown. I’ll let you know what his music is like in a later entry.
Before I go, I have to wish a “Happy Birthday" to my friend, Morgan. Click the link on my sidebar and send congratulations. Tomorrow, Morgan will be 18 years old – and an ADULT! I hope you have a wonderful day, despite the exam!
It has taken me two attempts to type out this entry, so I shall click the “Save” button before AOL eats this up again. Have a good weekend.

Leigh good luck on the exam results ~ I feel sure you did well ~ look forward to hearing how you got on ~ Ally
Well done on the exam Leigh. Hope you do well. There have been so many problems with AOL this week. Yesterday and the day before I could not get into most journals, I could not open my e-mail, could not reply to anyone. Tech help was no help so I installed the newer version of AOL and deleted the older one. All seems o.k. Fingers crossed. Enjoy your gig
Will keep everything crossed till you get your results. What great questions for you to get. Love Joan.
Leigh I'm so proud of how easily you went thru that test. Whatever the end grade I'd say it's more important that you involved yourself like that, tooth 'n nail to use a Yankee quote lol. I'll wish your friend Morgan a HB and await your next post on this Wilko Johnson! Stay well - CATHY
