Explanation of Mask: The bicycle represents my accident, and New Jersey is the state it happened in.  The phone was my lifeline! The shoe represents my struggle to get around.  The flower depicts how I’ve blossomed into a strong woman, living on my own and showing responsibility.  The lock represents how I had to open up to new things after my accident.  The unconditional love from my family helped me to grow up.
