Observations From Below: I’m no Blowhard

I’ve always found it interesting how my life works out sometimes. Almost like the universe is going to send me a message. In an interesting coincidence, I have been sick every time I needed to advocate health care reform. The first time I went to Washington in March, I came down with a cold. The […]

Observations from below: I Still Haven’t Found What I’m Looking For

I know personality tests like the Myers-Briggs don’t tell you all you need to know about yourself. But I’ve gotten the same result every time I took it. One of my strongest traits is that I’m very introverted, almost off the charts. People don’t believe me when I say that, because they see me giving […]

Observations From Below: All Right Mr. DeMille, I’m Ready for my Close-up

One awkward thing about using my living room as an office is that I get exposed to a lot of Lifetime and TLC network reruns. I noticed an interesting trend on both of those channels that there are a lot of shows about people with physical differences. For instance, there are a large number of […]

Observations From Below: If We Can Roll Together, Why Can’t We Rock Together?

To stay motivated lately, I have been reading a lot of biographies and autobiographies of civil rights leaders (especially in the realm of disability rights). Over the weekend, I finished a book called “Fading Scars: My Queer Disability History,” written by Corbett Joan O’Toole. I enjoyed the book a great deal, but I also found […]

Observations From Below: Covfefe

I’ll be open to you all and to say that Health Care advocacy has taken a lot out of me. It’s drained my fortitude and changed my perspective in certain ways. I used to think that Medicaid would be safe from any reductions that might be proposed. The one thing that President Trump said about […]

OBSERVATIONS FROM BELOW: THIS IS YOUR LAST BREATH

I have loved TED Talks since college. TED Talks “began in 1984 as a conference where Technology, Entertainment and Design converged, and today covers almost all topics — from science to business to global issues.” When I was first introduced to them, one of my favorites was given by the female comedian with a disability, […]

Observations From Below: March Madness (part 1)

For the people who grew up in NC, like I did, March is typically an exciting and busy month. March of 2017 was no exception. Although for me it didn’t include as much basketball watching as it normally does, I had an inordinate amount of duties to fulfill in the realm of advocacy. It’s funny […]

Observations From Below: Time Keeps on Slipping…..Into the Future

In my short time as a disability advocate, I’ve had the honor of sitting on several boards. One thing I’ve learned from sitting on these boards, is that sometimes it takes participating in a project for me to feel like a real part of the organization. In my time with the Adaptables Center for Independent […]

National Association of Councils on Developmental Disabilities Alert

I have received a time-sensitive alert from the National Association of Councils on Developmental Disabilities. We’ve heard Congress may couple repeal of the Affordable Care Act (ACA) with Medicaid block grants/per capita caps in a proposal as early as this week. As you know, individuals with disabilities and their families depend on the protections and […]
