I am.. I am so in admiration of her determination and her commitment to doing the very best she can every day despite a disability which is cerebral palsy and also rheumatoid arthritis.

So Kim, when did you move to the St. Paul's Independent Living? Three or four years ago. And what do you enjoy about living here? The pool and socializing with people. I love to swim, of course. I learned how to swim before I learn how to walk. Because I didn't start walking until I was five, because I had a foot deformity.

You know, I first actually met Kim Miller. at the Friars Road YMCA swimming pool. And I didn't know that it was Kim Miller at that time. And then some years ago now this young lady moved into the Plaza senior care living and it was evident that she had some challenges and as soon as I saw her swimming in that pool behind me here at the Plaza, I knew it was the same girl that I'd seen swimming at Friars Road in the YMCA. I can see him at the pool all day and this feels free. You know, like I can just swim forever.  Mondays, Wednesdays, Fridays and Saturdays are swim. and Tuesdays I do chairs exercise  and I walk I time myself walking from my room down the hallway and back. Do you see how long it takes me?  So she'll come up to me and she'll say, Janet, guess what? I walked from my room to the elevator to the reception down past the pub and back again and I did today in seventeen. With a big grin on her face and then she goes, yeah!!! I like to try and need to think that's new. Any challenge that you can give me. You're truly an inspiration to so many people. and we really just love having you here at the Plaza and I wanted to give you a special award this year. That you can have in your room and share with your family because you're one of my Senior Fitness Superstar for 2022. Yes, you are and they're you are.
