@James_G_OHara hi James, I sent you a message in telegram. Hope you can help

[Ann Wisdom @anniewiz]

@UberEats I signed up for uber eats so I wouldn't pay a delivery fee, but I am being charged. Why?

[Ann Wisdom @anniewiz]

@sandraketchen I will not give up until you help and please don't send me back to the office. You need to find out why your PSWs refuse to work on Friday night, Saturdays and Sundays. My body works 24/7 it doesn't take a vacation. I can't stress enough how much I need help

[Ann Wisdom @anniewiz]

@sandraketchen Please help me! I have been a client for over 10 years and I have home care every day except your company can't find 1 PSW for Friday evenings. I am bedridden and left alone for 15 hours! I wake up soaking wet in my urine. No one cares. Will you PLEASE help?!

[Ann Wisdom @anniewiz]

@r_graus Oh yeah!

Euphoria is the most powerful anti-depressant. When used safely, with intention and support offers immense healing.

Yet, euphoria has been stigmatized by medicine & labelled a “side effect”.

People shouldn’t feel guilt for feeling euphoric. It’s a beautiful human experience.

I've got a form on #CPTSD and at times memories come to swallow you up and bury you alive.

Psychedelics and others are helping people like me with physical pain too.

I'm almost a senior citizen and just discovering life after being subjected to severe overprotection for 60 years.

Please let your #disabledkids grow and make decisions for themselves as they would any able bodied kid.

[Ann Wisdom @anniewiz]

Just because a person is #bedridden that doesn't mean they're about to die!

I am not sick, can't bend my knees to get in my wheelchair again due to poor "professionals"🙄who don't want to even try! #ableism

[Ann Wisdom @anniewiz]

When you're a young kid with #CerebralPalsy everything sees you as cute and inspirational, but how things change when you're a #senior disabled person.

That's a different ball game and a tough one at that.

The caring is gone and you've got to look out for yourself in 2022

[Ann Wisdom @anniewiz]

@SFdirewolf Did you get an apology from the worker who left you stranded?

[Ann Wisdom @anniewiz]

@NsanityOverhaul That was exactly what I meant to say, but my words came out the wrong way.

Thanks for your insight and understanding.

[Ann Wisdom @anniewiz]

@SFdirewolf Just for Alice

[Ann Wisdom @anniewiz]

@SFdirewolf, it was never a competition and it was never intended one.

Our situations suck and people need to know that a 2 hour wait is nothing especially for the PSW companies -frankly that's why no one gives a shit - pardon me. So sorry you experienced that horror 😢

[Alice Wong 王美華 @SFdirewolf]

I’m not interested in comparing who suffered more. No one should suffer, both care workers and the people who rely on care

[Ann Wisdom @anniewiz]

@MaeExhausted Just what did I do that was sick? This is reality and that is sick. I simply stated what I go through several times a week - people need to know

[Ann Wisdom @anniewiz]

@FreeWheelinMe Where did I say she should put up with abuse?!

[Ann Wisdom @anniewiz]

Sorry Alice, but it's not uncommon for me to lie in my poop for up to 8 hours or longer and have missed many meals because the staff didn't call in or scheduling didn't bother to call and let me know. #shameful

[Alice Wong 王美華 @SFdirewolf]

Recovery update: laid in my poop in bed for 2 hours because my paid caregiver forgot to come (no emergency/illness) 💩

This is the reality for me & many other disabled & older people because we live in a society w/o a care culture & infrastructure 😤

@GlittersGarden I didn't mean it as condensing, but I can't help the way you interpreted it and that's not my problem.

I am a genuinely kind and empathic person who's had CP since birth and now I'm stuck in bed getting crappy service.

Unfortunately Alice and others too continue to suffer

[Ann Wisdom @anniewiz]

@coffeespoonie I never meant it as a frigging competition and who are you to call me a weirdo when you don't even know me or my situation?

[Ann Wisdom @anniewiz]

@NsanityOverhaul Thank you - that's exactly what I wanted to say and unfortunately I tend to be misunderstood. Thanks ❤️
