Sending love to everyone who has health issues or chronic pain in parts of your body that aren’t usually socially acceptable to talk about. It’s frustrating to feel like you can never explain your pain to someone because it’s TMI and to feel like you have to hide it. Your pain is nothing to be ashamed of. I see you, and I’m sending you support and strength.

Hi, if you don’t know me I’m F.M. and run this blog previously known as crippl-hacker. I’ve been couch surfing and homeless since October 2024 when I left Job Corps but I’ve run out of couches to surf on and am going to be staying in shelters soon.

My dad brought me to Utah thinking his family would help but my grandmother is transphobic and refused to let me stay for long enough to get on my feet. The rest of my family has sided with her.

I am a semi-ambulatory wheelchair user with an ileostomy and TBI so managing carrying all my medical stuff plus survival supplies is a chore.

I am currently broke and needing supplies that will help me at the shelter and managing getting around. I’ve also since lost my push rims in my various moves around.

If you are in a position to help financially I have an Amazon wishlist that ships to my sister’s house where she can hold onto stuff for me.

Check out my list on Amazon

the incredible harsh quiet revelation that you have when you are diagnosed with chronic illness(es) is that you will never be healthy again. I don't think able bodied people are able to understand what it means to just resign to the fact that your life is not just yours anymore. you share it with a weight that will be with you until you are gone from this world.
