Disability is indeed a burden, yet I hope for a world where we don’t have to carry our individual burdens all alone. Let the mega continue to a be a place where all of us can at least listen and make the burden somewhat lighter.

As always, we ask that in order to participate in the weekly megathread, one self-identifies as some form of disabled, which is broadly defined in the community sidebar:
“Disability” is an umbrella term which encompasses physical disabilities, emotional/psychiatric disabilities, neurodivergence, intellectual/developmental disabilities, sensory disabilities, invisible disabilities, and more. You do not have to have an official diagnosis to consider yourself disabled.
Mask up, love one another, and stay alive for one more week.
The appointment is in another week and a half. Getting lots of morphine and codeine in the hospital last week did relieve it quite a bit, but I seem to be allergic to those now and I take paracetamol so much anyway, I’m trying to cut down on that. It got worse when they prescribed me folic acid so I stopped taking that. Last night my pins and needles were so bad I took another folic acid and it seems to have flared the UTI symptoms up again. Whatever I do to treat one condition, always makes another worse. I wish I could just be put down humanely, I don’t see why I am forced to live like this. Especially in a country where they don’t even care whether I’m fed or housed.
