Robin Collins

Robin Collins is a self-described “little old lady.” She’s 4 feet tall in her wheelchair and unexpectedly hurtling toward age 70 while wearing functional, lady-like skirts. Robin has SMA type 3, which was diagnosed before she turned 10. Lately, she’s more vocal, writing down her thoughts and sharing them, with just about anyone. Where her life and its lessons will take her is unclear, but she continues to find purpose in it.
