Blog Explanation

Hey, y'all. I'm Jade from @disabled-is-not-a-dirty-word . I am unaffiliated with @spooniestrong , but I will be using this blog to caption as many uncaptioned Spooniestrong posts as possible.

In the past, I have offered to caption these posts, but was asked to do so in the comments of said posts. Due to comment restrictions on all Spooniestrong posts, I am unable to do this. I am also unable to DM Spooniestrong. This means that the most convenient way for me to caption these posts is to directly reblog them with the captions in the reblog.

If these captions are added directly to the original post, either through alt text or in the description, I will remove my reblogs if requested by either Spooniestrong or the OP if it is a reblog.

Please let me know if you have any comments or concerns! I would especially like to hear from people who actually use these captions!

[ID: A screenshot of a post by @spooniestrong that reads "I don't understand why people think there is an age limit on illnesses. Okay, so certain things are more likely to happen to pediatric or geriatric patients, but there is no chronological age where illness is concerned. You can get cancer as a child (I did). You can break your hip as a teenager. You can have a heart attack in your 20s. You can get diagnosed with a chronic disease or disability at ANY POINT IN YOUR LIFE. There is no 'you're too young for' or 'you're too old for' ANYTHING. Illnesses and disabilities don't care about your age, your zip code, your excercise schedule, your lifestyle choices, your job, etc." /End ID]
