Yesterday was International Disability Day which, fittingly, I spent in too much pain to function. When I did manage to get outside l still gave a small involuntary scream of pain in the middle of the street (it's usually not nearly that bad). Most of you know me well enough to know that am very ill, but still work very hard to present as someone who is not in a lot of pain. The reward is people telling me l don't look ill and assuming am not. Not all disabilities are visible.

Happy International Day of People with Disabilities! ♿ Basically it's a day to celebrate me 😜 I kid I kid! But seriously today is really important and a day to share, support and uplift disabled creators, & show appreciation for disabled family & friends. If there was one thing that was made very clear this year, is how important accessibility is for EVERYONE. The ability to work from home and have access to food, shops, bathrooms, public spaces etc, has been something everyone has suddenly been made very aware of what is actually capable, something we've known & been asking for our entire lives! Things we need to ensure stay in place for the people who still need them when things "go back to normal" for the average abled person. I want today to be a celebration, not a negative day, but we definitely still do have a long way to go to get disability & ableism taken seriously & equally. Tell me something positive about disability/access that you have learned ♡ _____________________________ #IDPWD #IDPWD2020 #IDPWD20 #DisabledPerson #InternationalDayOfPeopleWithDisabilities #Disabled #Disability #wheelchairuser #DisabledSelfie #IdentityFirst #Ableism #AbledsAreWeird #cuteselfie #DisabledAndCute #hereiam #TheMiltonMaizeMaze #thisisme #equality #respectme (at The Milton Maize Maze) https://www.instagram.com/p/CIVECXMH6D7/?igshid=1wjd9wnznvjur
