I think the hardest part of me has to be the asking for help part. I mean there are SO MANY forms needed including from doctors who don’t know how to fill out the forms because they are different everywhere. That is why I went back to @MiraCosta, my info was on file. Easy! 19/

It was a community effort empowered by the energy from @CripCampFilm. It was a call to action. It was bold in sharing my experience to sharing a vision for a more inclusive academia. I think it was a beautiful challenge to just let my story be enough w/o a single reference 17/

Why did I do this to myself? Everything. All of it is the hardest part. Since mom passed, emotional wreck. Yet, it allowed me to be fullest self for the 1st time. Being on @FetLife can be hard as a #DisabledSubmissive, but I am upfront about it. LittleSye is my 12/
