I chose to study the career of physical therapy for my Senior Project. I am very interested to learn the ins and outs of being a physical therapist. This experience will help me decide if I truly want to persue this career in college. The main reason I want to study Physical Therapy is because, I have a cousin who I am very close to that has the disability of cerebral palsy. We do many things together and I help her with tasks that she has trouble doing on her own. One day she said to me that I should be a physical therapist, because I enjoy helping her and I have patience. When I heard her say that, I thought about seriously, since I really had no idea what I wanted to do with my life. I always knew that I wanted to have a career in which I helped people in some way.
