Chronic pain patients thank you, Mr President.

Third: We classify marijuana at the same level as heroin – and more serious than fentanyl. It makes no sense. I’m asking @SecBecerra and the Attorney General to initiate the process of reviewing how marijuana is scheduled under federal law.

If you can wear a mask in public places and you’re choosing not to, you’re an active part of the reason why disabled people like me still can’t come in. FYI.

[SpoonieStrong @SpoonieStrong]

In a heartbeat.

@FoodieScience just read your article on Covid “superdodgers”; has anyone considered those of us who haven’t gotten it are still masking, socially distancing & quarantining? Because the disabled / immunocompromised community is. No one in my household has gotten it in 3 years.

@VisitBucksPA No handicapped accessible parking because their outdoor dining area is taking it up.

DM to me: “Stop complaining so much. Disabled people have so much more access now.
Be grateful.”

I will never be grateful for partial or limited access.
As long as there is exclusion of disabled people, I will be “complaining” and fighting for more access.

[Gregory Mansfield @GHMansfield]

When nondisabled people control access and accommodation for disabled people, disabled people will always be at a disadvantage.

In the meantime, we are asking members & patients who have experienced challenges accessing #MTX to email [email protected] with details.

#Gout sucks. How do you deal? Best coping tips?

@RossAndrew999RN Shame on you from stealing this tweet from @upgradeaccessi1 — you say your disabled but plagerize from a fellow disabled person?

[Upgrade Accessibility @upgradeaccessi1]

When the clock strikes midnight, it will be Disability Pride Month.

There will be no flashy merchandise.

Companies won’t be changing their logos.

Celebrities won’t be posting on social media about it.

And the disabled community still won’t have equity or equality.

Autoimmune disease patients have a hard enough time getting treatment, & they’re trying to take more of our meds away?! We already suffer bc you’re taking opioids away. #MyDisabledLifeMatters #disabledrightsarehumanrights
