Hello hello hello!
Thank you all so so much once again for being so incredibly patient with me and for still being here listening to this episode of Advice 4 The Living!
This episode is truly a frustrating situation that involves a (sometimes) avoidable feeling of embarrassment and the isolation of a lovely 9-year-old girl.
It makes me so devastated to know that even now, in 2026…disabled people/people with additional medical needs/people who rely on easy accommodations to get them through their day with their confidence and dignity in tact…still aren’t treated as equals, and clearly to some people, they see us as second class citizens who should be “grateful” for the bare minimum done to attempt to create accessibility.
I feel like some people think that someone receiving an accommodation means that now they have such an easier time than you and have to do way more work wah wah wah whatever else they want to claim…but accommodations don’t give you a leg up on others…they give you an equal playing field.
That being said, my heart aches for anyone else who’s ever been in a similar situation to this story in any way, as *any* person mentioned within it. I’m so sorry for what you’ve been through or are continuing to go through, and I hope you find solace, peace and comfort in knowing you’re not alone.
Chronic illness can be so isolating, but I promise…one day…you will find your people. The ones who “get it” in ways no one else can. And in my experience, even through all the prior broken-hearts, it was worth the wait.
For everyone listening — regardless of if you can relate or not — I hope you can at least take away something that stood out to you or a tidbit of something to think about!
Also, I want to reiterate my appreciation for everything you do to interact with this podcast. While downloads are the most helpful (especially if the video has an ad), I truly appreciate all of it. From you liking/favouriting/saving the podcast itself or specific episodes that resonate with/stand out to you, to sharing it (either on or off-line/by word of mouth), to when you give it a rating/review on the app you’re tuning in from, and even when you just simply listen. It really helps propel this podcast forward in the algorithm so that more people can join our ever-growing community movement of difference-makers, world-changers, and those who genuinely care about our fellow humans who are struggling with an invisible burden, even if we don’t share the same opinions/beliefs. There’s always mutual support and respect and it’s so humbling and beautiful to be a part of!
I also really appreciate all of your email submissions, because without them…this podcast wouldn’t exist. So if you have a topic/subject matter, circumstance or problem/issue/dilemma that you want me to share my thoughts, perspective, advice and opinions on and discussed in an episode, please don’t hesitate to email me at advice4theliving@gmail.com and I check my messages constantly so stay tuned because you’ll never know when your submission will be next!
Thank you all once again for everything, and I can’t wait to catch you in the next one! Bye folks!
PS. I am so sorry if there is an ad on this video, I know how annoying they are… But if you download an episode, where an ad is playing, I do get a bit of a kickback so thank you all so much for understanding and being patient with me.
