Hélène Cixous: “I owe some of the most fantastical hallucinatory experiences of my childhood to my extreme nearsightedness: vanishing streets, substitutions, metaphorization and metonymization of the world and of people.”
(in an interview collected in Rootprints, tr. Prenowitz)
Happy #RareDiseaseDay! 😎 Having the rare visual impairment #Aniridia hasn't stopped me living a happy, fulfilled, successful life. In fact, I'm actually a support worker for a good friend who has even more severe sight loss than me. We make a great team!

I’ve been pushing Govt to appoint new Minister for Disabled People - shocked to learn they're scrapping it. Disabled people need their *own* Minister to address challenges, discrimination & to champion their rights. Shocking downgrade of representation & at time of such hardship.
