Sammi Haney, 9, is carried by her mom Priscilla Haney onto a wagon for a hay ride during a homeschool day outing at Devine Acres Farm in Devine, Texas, Oct. 2, 2019. Because of Sammi's osteogenesis imperfecta (OI), commonly known as Òbrittle bone disease,Ó she and her parents have to take precautions to keep Sammi safe while also trying to let Sammi be independent and do things able bodied kids can do. ÒPeople are all like ÔOh, I feel so sorry for them (people with disabilities).Õ They donÕt need to feel sorry- weÕre good. We can get around, we can eat by themselves. I can sit in a chair!Ó Sammi says. ÒNo one needs to feel sorry for me or anybody, itÕs the way we are.Ó Photo: Josie Norris/The San Antonio Express-News
