Hey all, it's a bad time to go without healthcare needs! Today is the 1st Disposition Hearing for the hypnotist on 20 felony sexual assaults + the new felony SA charge (not sure if they will arraign on that today). I also need to file an amended report for my case w/new evidence. Might erase SOL!

With the increase in food and medication recalls, it’s easy to feel a loss of control. One small thing you can do to make a huge difference is to wear a mask. It keeps you & your community safe. It shows solidarity with disabled people. It’s a form of resistance. It’s community care.

I wrote this article nearly two years ago but it’s just as relevant today. I wish every healthcare worker would read it and realize patients deserve protection. They deserve to be safe in the place they go to get care. They deserve masks in healthcare:

disabledginger.com

A Plea to Maskless Healthcare Workers from Vulnerable Patients

If you see a mask - wear a mask. Better yet - wear a mask all the time and show us you understand that we're still IN a pandemic. We are depending on you to keep us safe - please don't betray that.

It’s not your fault you’re disabled. It’s not your fault you’re chronically ill. It’s not your fault you’re living in poverty, lacking health insurance, homeless or unemployed. The billionaire class wants us to believe these are moral failings so they don’t have to help people. We should help.

When I could hide my disabilities, people accepted me. When I couldn’t hide them, they tolerated me. When I became vocal & demanded ableism be addressed, they abandoned me. This is why we need a Disability Pride month. This is why we need advocates. We shouldn’t have to hide.
