I am joining the disability march in order to fight for healthcare, women’s rights, and the equality of all people.

I’ve have MS for 20yrs and fully disabled for 15yrs. Currently i am bed ridden which certainly prevents me from being there. The thing that sets me apart from most others is that “I have had enough”. To me, having Trump in the Whitehouse only adds to my negative view of the future. As you…
