When it comes to learning and spreading awareness about disabilities, Katrina, the host of Living with Disabilities, makes sure she stays on her toes. October is filled with a lot of different disability awareness. Including learning disabilities.  The Learning Hub presented by Living with Disabilities: Disability in Learning

A thumbnail is an image featuring three sunflowers and a gold brush stroke. In the scene, an individual is pushing the title 'Living with Disabilities'. To the right, there is a person seated in a wheelchair. Below the title, the phrase reads, 'Let's push "Dis" aside and focus on Ability at Living with Disabilities'. Accompanying this is a small red bell icon with the word 'Subscribe' and the caption 'The Learning Hub presented by Living with Disabilities: Disability in Learning'.

I don’t think the venue is to blame, although I don’t know if any of their publicity mentions that not all disabilities are visible, or anything about the sunflower lanyard. It seems more awareness is needed. #DisabilityPrideMonth #HiddenDisability

Stimming

Happy Neurodiversity Celebration Week!

I was recently diagnosed with autism and did some research that answered a lot of questions that I had about myself. When I’m overstimulated by my environment or my mind, when stress accumulates, I’m in pain, or feeling weird somatic sensations around my body, I need some kind of distraction and relief. Unfortunately for me, that distraction is itching and picking. Dermatitis and allergies run in…

I talk about how a disability nightclub has been great for me, and why more nightclubs should do it. https://youtu.be/tplL9W-8j9o

I didn’t complain at the time. I just asked them to stop keep sending me emails as I would never holiday with them again due to their awful treatment of people with disability and suggested they train their staff. They raised this as a complaint. Now, on top of the continued never-ending emails advertising holidays, I get emails saying that they do not have the staff to deal with my complaint so they are closing it. But if I want to proceed I have to play email ping pong 🤦🏻‍♀️ Well I don’t want to play! So I’m just going to write it here and maybe they will then take notice and TRAIN their staff and stop contacting me. I will NEVER go on one of your holidays again. I know it was a difficult time back in May. We were just coming out of lockdown. Masks. One ways etc. But these were just two of the issues: I parked my mobility scooter at the front door if Starbucks at the lake. I joined the queue to go order coffee and left the others to go get a table out back (I couldn’t get the scooter round there and it was further for me to walk than to queue) After I’d ordered, my brother came to help me through the exit door as to come via the queue would mean close contact with others. The woman stopped him. He explained he was coming to help me as I have disabilities. Her response? “Well she looks ok to me”🤦🏻‍♀️ Another member of my party has asthma and struggles to breath with masks but is sick of being challenged when not wearing it. He held a mask over his mouth rather than put it on to allow him to take the occasional breath without it. At the checkout he was challenged by ‘Jack’ We explained the difficulty breathing and demonstrated that actually the mask can be held tighter when holding it against the mouth in that it’s more difficult to hear what people are saying. Jacks response? “ Yeah. And we’ll see you in the special olympics next year” Not sure if that was an insult to us or our brilliant Para Olympians ! 🤷🏻‍♀️ #centreparks #disability #disabilitydiscrimination #olympics #olympians #fnd #fibromyalgia #arthritis #bppv #disabilityawareness #disabilitytraining #disabilityadvocate #hiddendisability #thetford #holidays https://www.instagram.com/p/CW8fm5GNohd/?utm_medium=tumblr

Hidden Disabilities

Last month I went to the art museum, in which they had an exhibit about hidden disabilities. There was this mass of sticky notes on the wall rapidly outgrowing the square within which they had designated for the notes to be contained within. It was astounding to see the vast variety of things that people were coping with on a daily basis. It was especially affirming to see how many other people were struggling with things that I also struggle with. 

Next to the sticky note wall was a wall with buttons on it. They said the following:

I have a PHYSICAL hidden disability

Hidden Disabilities ALLY

I have a NEUROLOGICAL hidden disability

I have a COGNITIVE hidden disability

I have a hidden disability

Trust what I SAY not how I LOOK

I snagged one of the latter ones (partially because it was also one of my preferred color combinations, and encompassed my experience with hidden disabilities better). I haven’t quite gotten the courage to wear it out yet, but as soon as I relocate it, it will be joining the rest of my button army on my bag!

This is Callissia Fragrans under the microscope! I am grateful beyond human words to @sonia__levy for these stunning images. A successful start to a beautiful remote collaboration! Thank you! 🔬 There is something captivating about the images being ever so slightly unattainable, fuzzy at the edges, bringing edges to the centre in layers no unlike human skin, yet shifting away from the human focus. 🌿 Read about my project Hidden (2020 onwards) via the link in my linktree. It began with a tiny video portrait of Callisia I created especially for Chlorophilia exhibition at @aptgallery curated by Paul Malone and Nicola Rae @nrae_studio, with music by @samuelhollowayproductions, now also a text piece written for Uprooting the Anthropocene Symposium, @torchoxford, all under one canopy. And more to come! ✨ @carlos.magdalena.kew this is my planty project I mentioned! 🤓 #callisiafragrans #mexicoendemic #filmingunderthemicroscope #remotecollaboration #humanplantnarratives #vegetalbeings #hiddendisability #abilitydifference #access #medicinalplants #chlorophilia https://www.instagram.com/p/CSM3hArIkqymV_0iM7xPUdLkItOjPf8Krz_-ZE0/?utm_medium=tumblr
