"Being called inspirational is like revealing that society has such little expectations of disabled people" - such a brilliant interview with sophie morgan on Kris Hallenga's podcast #GlitteringaTurd (and yes, Kris, you *are* a gift) podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/sopโฆ

Enlightening Results ๐ก "Patients are demanding." ... because: ๐ Not everyone we encounter listens ๐ We all know someone who's fallen through the cracks ๐ We're not given enough information not to be ๐ Self-advocacy works ๐ If we don't tell people what we need, they have to guess

My head is still bad today but I've taken some aspirin and I'm going for a run. Lined up some podcasts to listen to. On Friday I discovered Kris Hallenga has a podcast and listened to her and @josierones - Highly recommend! And read Kris' book too. And Rosie's.
