Maddy struggles with simple tasks like walking to class, carrying books, and navigating stairs.
She has to rely on crutches or a wheelchair, making her feel dependent on others.

Maddy feels frustrated and isolated, watching her classmates easily move around.
She’s embarrassed by the attention her injury brings, like everyone constantly asking about it.
As a normally active person, she misses participating in sports, especially horseback riding, and feels restless.
She battles with impatience as the recovery feels slow, and she’s eager to get back to her old life.
A sense of helplessness or vulnerability makes her more introspective, leading to self-doubt.

She forms a closer bond with someone she wasn’t initially close to, perhaps another student who understands her struggle.
