Wisdom on AND ! 😉👩🏻‍💻♿️ I’ve been stumped by an I finished earlier this year about reforming repair policies for wheelchairs based on my experience in 2024-25 in which my vendor ordered a child-sized seat for my adult wheelchair, dismissed me all 3 times I expressed concerns over being uncomfortable sitting, and only acted after I sought medical attention for hip pain, after x-rays showed misaligned bones from sitting in a prolonged bad position, and after my physician said to get my chair reevaluated and do months of physical therapy to rehabilitate the hips (all is well now). I knew my essay didn’t work, and approaching it from the angle of how the wheelchair modification process takes an unnecessarily long time is an important issue but didn’t seem to do this story justice. So I set the piece aside. June brought my annual out-of-state appointments with the physician who diagnosed the hip issue and signed off on the order for the new adult-sized seat. I’d messaged her after learning the vendor messed up on the measurements, but being out of state, this was the first time we could react in person—how could a vendor make that mistake?! When I went above his head last year to resolve the issue, the executives at his company repeatedly requested to deal with my mother because “someone like me,” they said several times, is unlikely to be capable of providing adequate information. 🙄 As I sat in my appointments this year and noticed how I was seen as a self advocate by my medical team, the complete opposite of the way I’m treated by my vendor, the solution to my problem with my piece dawned on me: The essay must be about how stereotypes prevent individuals with disabilities from being seen as dependable self advocates by people who work in industries designed to benefit them, and now the essay is coming along quite rapidly. 😉

: Go back to the setting of your piece in person, virtually, or through research and conversation. Ignore the obvious angle you could take. What are people saying about the issue? What are the underlying causes?

Here’s a picture of the saying that appears throughout my specialty hospital: “I can do anything,” like be a strong, reliable advocate. 💜

"Even now, I wonder if I’m too bold in my writing, if readers may misinterpret why I put forth certain ideas, certain arguments... I'm still discovering how bold and daring I can and should be in my writing, and it is honestly sometimes beyond my comfort zone—which is okay. This publication experience has taught me to accept and push past those feelings of apprehension. When an idea comes to me that seems too risky, too taboo to write about, I’m learning to lean in, embrace it, and muster the courage to put words on pages. I choose not to limit myself. I choose to chance that I am onto something capable of catalyzing positive change."

Ironically, when I first thought of the idea for this piece about the process of overcoming "those feelings of apprehension," I almost hesitated to write it out of fear that it would seem like I was erring old grievances, but now, I'm very proud to have written it and am excited to see if and how it empowers other to share their tough-to-tell narratives. I'm thankful to Brevity Magazine & The Brevity Blog for publishing it today!
