[ID: The first videi is of the mirrored exterior walls of Hamer Hall. They are set like a zigxag shape, reflecting off of each other. In the reflection, you can see me riding my mobility scooter. The video then pans to the city. The 2nd image is of me, short curly brown hair, red lips, grey sweater, riding my mobility scooter. The blue handle can be seen.] #BabeWithAMobilityAid #MobilityAid #MobilityScooter #Disabled #YoungAndDisabled #YoungAndWired #HamerHall #ArtsCentre #Melbourne (at Hamer Hall Arts Centre Melbourne) https://www.instagram.com/presyncope_sarah/p/Bwi4RJ8l6dv/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1hheuu8bcbw0c

I sleighed/slayed today. (Plus, I didn't even ask Pip to sit - she just decided to pose 🎅) [ID: To the left of the image, sitting up straight and tall is Pip, a one year old black labcross puppy. A golden bum nelong to Charlie, a senior golden retriever, can be seen behind her. To the right of the image is a mobility scooter covered in red, white & black felt to look like a sleigh! Behind the scooter is a green Christmas tree covered in twinkling multicoloured lights & ornaments] #SleighRide #SleighBells #CraftyChristmas #Vlogmas #YoungAndDisabled #YoungAngWired #ChronicIllness #ChrobicallyFabulous #DogsOfInstagram #Labradorable #ChristmasDogs #DogsWhoLikeChristmas #OChristmasTree https://www.instagram.com/p/BrAUDinH5DH/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1kpxd0tsb88dq

Perfect weather for a flyer drop. [ID: I am sitting in my mobility scooter in a yellow shirt & blue shorts. A green leafy bushnis in the backdrop and the scooter's handle and arm rests are visible on the bottom right & left corners.] #OutAndAboutHealthCare #MobilityAid #MobilityScooter #YoungAndDisabled #YoungAngWired #DisabledAndCute #Disability #Pots #Ncs #Pacemaker #Fibromyalgia https://www.instagram.com/p/BnqJKQwHkvh/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1ce0vrocn8ab

Parents

My parents while loving me or claiming they do so have never actually been “parents” 

I grew up very alone, isolated, forced into independence from a young age and what dangers of the world I was against when I stepped outside the house. 

I’ve been angry at my parents since I first became mentally unwell at age 12. They suddenly wanted to be there for me after years of loneliness, bullying, move after move, never having any real friends let alone anyone I could trust they wanted me to put my entire life into theirs hands and all that time I was still trying to be their “perfect daughter”. 

It’s taken me years, lots of therapy and basically having my body slowly disappearing from me from at 21 and feeling like I’m 80 with near full dependance on a walking stick. And my mother going through major health issues of her own that we developed some form of a relationship, there were times when she pushed the limits and broke my trust but somehow we grew from it. 

My father on the other hand while having his quite, indirect and often blasé way of showing his affection which is paying for my medical expenses, occasionally giving me lifts from their place to where ever, and occasionally remembering I exist and brining me a gift from one of his numerous overseas work trips. My mother claims he loves me just as much as she does, but they are both baffled by my inability to seemingly “make a life for myself” which despite what they think, I’ve had to learn how to be a person the last 10 years and have only recently had the mental capacity to be able to see myself having a life in a years time and not being intent with “death is my only option and is best for everyone”, Those thoughts still linger but with a small amount of hope I have pilled away in my heart from achievements even during the “worst” years of my life. And thanks to that I am have more strength to actually give a fucking damn. 

Anyway what this how ramble is about really is that:

I feel stable. My life is an absolute wreck and shit is in pieces. But I’m not dying for death. I want to repair the relationship with my Father, it will be hard because of secrets I hold about our family but, I need my parents. I need them for my future and I just hope they’ll meet me halfway, work with me, and listen to me carefully and accept that I am doing what I think is best.

My furry friends looking after me during my bad brain day. [ID: Pip is curled up behind my bent knees and her head is resting on my leg.
