Remember, RESPECTING Palestinian citizens and CRITICIZING Israeli government actions does NOT make you an antisemite. PS This post is personal to a member here due to ongoing attacks on Palestinians in Gaza that have not caused deaths but have maimed her family (amputations, paralysis, blindness..)

More hospital ER closures thanks to our Alberta #UCP conservative government. It is impossible to prepare in advance for an emergency but at least be aware of the closures and times. Good luck. (hugs) #AISH

"But I had to wait 8 months for an MRI for my hip pain so private health care is worth it" argued my sister. So off to the US she went for OUTpatient hip-replacement for $30,000 but there were complications. She became an INpatient & her total bill was $110,000. Hello 2nd mortgage at 62. #Abpoli

Albertans Refuse to Let Her Divide Us
Dear Canadian Neighbours, 
We are Albertans who are proud Canadians, and we stand for a united country. We care deeply about our national values and people with disabilities in every province. Premier Smith's actions are divisive and hurting Albertans. She is threatening to claw back the Canada Disability Benefit—a vital national program all Canadians pay for through federal taxes. This calculated attempt to make Albertans with disabilities suffer is meant to pit Albertans against the rest of Canada. We refuse to let her divide us.
With hope for a stronger, united Canada, Albertans for Disability Rights


HOW CAN YOU HELP?
Email your Member of Parliament and DEMAND that Albertans with disabilities receive the full federal benefit, just like fellow Canadians in every other province. Stand with us to make sure Canada keeps its promise to its most vulnerable citizens.

You’re much closer to becoming disabled or homeless than you are to becoming rich and wealthy. It’s not a moral failing. It’s not something you can “try harder” your way out of. We need robust social supports & safety nets to ensure everyone is properly cared for.

People always tell me that I should have more support. That if my level of function was really “that bad” I would have help. Please believe me when I tell you help doesn’t magically appear when you become disabled. Unless you’re rich or have family support, you’re on your own.

It is so hard to ask for help, especially when you’re disabled & chronically ill. When you’ve spent most of your life being treated as “less than” or a drain, you worry anyone you ask for help will judge you. It takes a surprising amount of courage, so the best thing you can do is be kind

I want to give those of you who have not been exposed to this new strain of Covid a warning. It is very insidious. I have had it now for almost 3 weeks it does not want to go away. I thought I was getting better, but now having a problem breathing. Please be careful especially the immunocompromised.

Worries About Vaccination Rates In Dogs

As rabies seems to be spreading more in wildlife, veterinarians are especially worried about vaccine hesitancy spread among pet owners, a dangerous trend that could lead to more dogs and their owners to becoming infected. A 2023 study published in the journal VACCINE found 40% of Americans believe canine vaccines were unsafe and 37% believed that vaccines could lead to develop cognitive issues, such as autism.

Ah yes....someone out of nowhere telling me to use essential oils. Below are the types of responses that disabled people with chronic diseases hear more of nowadays. PS. I wish Frankincense oil stopped the progression of Parkinson's. I tried. It didn't. #AISH #PWD #disabilities
Two soldiers look over a field of medieval soldiers that look dead, some struck with arrows while others just lay still.

Solider 1: "How do we know if they're actually dead or just pretending?"
Soldier 2 yells loudly: "I have a chronic illness!"

Soldiers that were laying quiet on the field who have not been struck by arrows yell back to the soldier with the chronic illness "Try kale! YOGA! Essential oils! Juice Cleanse!"

Anyone on #AISH approved for the DTC will receive their $200 Canada Disability Benefit (CDB) HOWEVER, the #UCP is the ONLY province in Canada who is cutting what we receive from our disability program. We now receive $200 less from the province. $200 CDB minus $200 AISH cut = $0 #ableg #cdnpoli
