You don't know what you can do until you try, no matter who tells you "you can't." In the case of Susan Silverthorn, she spent a large part of her young life hearing she would not amount to anything. Handicapped by difficulty in speaking and bedwetting, she grew up with a bad case of low self-esteem.

Yet passing through school and acquiring a medical technician course would prove to change her life. Crediting her own courage to take a chance, she found on her own that she was not the stupid kid she was brought up and made to believe herself.Susan's life is a lesson for those like her, as well as for parents to encourage, bless, and reward their kids even if they believe their children are not capable of learning new things.
