Raphy loves arts and crafts! I'm going to start uploading pictures of the projects he undertakes with his sisters. His latest ambition is a snow blowing machine, i doubt that will work out though, ha ha!

My mom, Debo, Oli and Jack were leaving the house after lunch today to go make my glasses at Queenstown. It just happened that my brother came back from school right before we left the house. When he found out we were leaving the house, he promptly plopped himself on the floor, buried his face in his arms, and cried "WHY ARE YOU LEAVING ME??"
awww. :(

Today, I picked my brother Raphy up from school. I sat in his wheelchair at the bottom of the void deck as I enjoyed the cool Singaporean day. I was just on the verge of falling asleep when I saw my brother's happy face come upi the drive way, grinning at me through the window.
That's my brother Raphy.
Going on 10 in February, he was born with cerebral palsy. I'm not exactly sure of the specifics, but all I know is that he cannot walk. He can't use the left side of his body. And he has a hole in his brain. But he is just like any other little boy. He loves playing computer games, watching cartoon network (Ben 10 to be specific), and eating sweets is his weakness.
This blog is about Raphy, and his life with his family in Singapore. Who am I? I'm Rachel, Raphy's big sister. (I like to think I'm the best one too! But I'm not.) Many people think our life (the Lee's) is a movie-- full of excitement, fun, laughter, and drama. It kinda is. We are always making fun of each other (much like the 3 stooges), kidding (mostly), poking fun at each other, and mostly just having a blast. You'll see more of it as the time goes by.
Hopefully, you will join our family in our crazy antics as we go on with life with my brother Raphy and the rest of our family!!

Me
My name is Raphael, but everyone calls me Raphy. I was born with cerebral palsy, the quadriplegic kind. But I'm in ABR Asia, where my mom and Uncle Leonid are
doing everything to make me better :) I have 3 sisters, Rachel, Debo, and Oli, and they all love me very much--as do my Dad and Mom! I love doing arts and crafts with my sisters,
and I LOVE watching cartoon network and disney channel, especially Ben 10!! Join me and the rest of my family on my blog! Feel free to leave comments and questions!
