Caregivers Series: Welcome

A saint. 
Angelic.
Too good to be true. 
Selfless
Tiresome
Brave
Good Samaritan

These are all words to describe caregivers. At least, this is what people think of when they think of the word "caregiver". They believe these angels walking the Earth are completely selfless people who help when needed. 

Just who are these people that are around to help us do the things that most people do for themselves? Just what does having a caregiver mean? Is it okay for you to recognize your own limitations?
Stay tuned for this very special topic.

How To Use a Transfer Board and Other Stuff

So just in case you didn’t know, I have a YouTube Channel called Living With Chronic Illness, where I speak about issues concerning being sick and disability. Here is my latest video! https://www.amazon.com/DMI-Transfer-Capacity-Transfers-Handicap/dp/B000WNJU1A/ref=sr_1_4?keywords=transfer+board&qid=1568927138&s=gateway&sr=8-4 Here is the link to the transfer board that is used in the video. It supports a weight for up to 400lbs. It’s sturdy and smooth to use, but you may want to be wearing pants when you use it...just some interesting information. Please subscribe to the video and purchase the board if you need to. Thank you!

Uh....the Controversial Episode Explained

https://madbadgirl.podomatic.com We did an episode recently about mass shootings and disabled people. I labeled this episode CONTROVERSIAL because inside the podcast, I try to simulate a situation that happens too many times in this country. So there are ample warnings before the simulation occurs. If someone doesn’t want to take part, then they don’t have to and can skip ahead. At this point, using different sound effects, I recreate some sounds that could trigger people. I'm glad I put the warning in and those that want to participate, can and those who don’t, won’t have to. So I hope that this episode will start a discussion and engagement on an issue that affects all Americans but disabled Americans need more than lip service. WE need action and we need it now! People with disabilities are more likely to be the victim of violence rather than the cause of it. This episode was chosen because we are not having the right discussions in this country about mass shootings...
