I am joining the Disability March because while I strongly oppose the incoming administration, I don’t like large, volatile crowds for fear of an anxiety attack.   English Teacher, pet mom, LGBTQIA ally, world traveler.    

I am watching and I march with you from home because of chronic pain. I march because as a cancer survivor I have a pre-existing condition. I march in support of the ACA, women’s rights, voting rights, equal rights for all Americans.    

This is the face of a chronically ill, prochoice, bisexual woman. Because I have been sick for 2/3 of my life, at 30 years old my back story is going to take more than 300 words. It’s full dark moments when I thought I could t make it and small victories that sometimes win the…
