A6: The fact that anyone and everyone can become disabled at any time has never been more apparent then now, but little to nothing has actually changed or been done. I don't know what other proof is needed that disabled people aren't even worth a thought to them #spooniechat
A3: I sometimes feel like I'm still adjusting, even though it's been a few years. I wish I could tell my younger self that it's *not* ok and it's *not* normal to hurt so much all the time, and it *is* ok to find a new doctor who will listen to you. #spooniechat
