How do I DeeSribe myself? Chick in a chair who loves baking, crocheting and writing.

Managed Long Term Care (MLTCs) pockets billions in profits meant for home care - enough to fund #FairPay4HomeCare. Meanwhile, they are turning the lives of New Yorkers with disabilities like Gemma upside down.

If you need an argument for hiring disabled journalists, @AmandaMoMorris, who is hard of hearing and a #CODA, wrote this gut-wrenching profile of how the deaf community in Lewiston is reeling after the shooting this week.

A new piece by me for about my adventures in public speaking and my rage against ableism and Boston University’s School of Public Health @BUSPH. Enjoy!

@NYAIL @Imani_Barbarin It was a great way to open the conference! So glad I got to be a part of it and meet @Imani_Barbarin.

[Denise DiNoto @deescribes]

So excited to hear @Imani_Barbarin at the @NYAIL statewide conference. Her message was spot on.

Sadly, I have seen baggage handlers do this with my chair too. Good luck getting it resolved and fixed quickly!

[John Morris | Wheelchair Travel @WCTravelOrg]

For the first time ever, I actually witnessed @AmericanAir destroy my wheelchair in real time. It was improperly loaded on the baggage belt and flipped off onto the pavement. Sadly, I don’t have video but do have this photo. They weren’t going to say a single word to me about it.

@RebeccaCokley @jaycowit Honestly, I have always loved how the South Park kids just accept Timmy as who he is. I'm not a regular viewer, but the few times I've seen an episode, I love that he's just one of the gang.

[Denise DiNoto @deescribes]

Just learned that @Imani_Barbarin is going to be speaking at the @NYAIL conference this fall. So excited to meet her at this event!

"Wanna race?
Don't run me over!
Watch out for the wheelchair lady!
Do you have a license for that thing?"

Still, I am proud.

[Denise DiNoto @deescribes]

@emily_ladau Wishing you the best luck - and hoping your chairs make it undamaged.

[Denise DiNoto @deescribes]

Thank you closed captioning! Now I know what Michael Arden said on the #Tonys. He's the "f**** with the Tony!"

@RebeccaCokley The right red lipstick is an important thing that cannot be understated. Good luck in your quest!

[Denise DiNoto @deescribes]

All the time!

Rest in Power Sally Johnston! There are so many reasons we named our advocacy award for Sally. She was a fierce advocate who spent her life fighting not only for #FairPay4HomeCare & CDPA but for the Disability Community & the right of disabled ppl to be supported in the community

[Denise DiNoto @deescribes]

@Imani_Barbarin Seriously!!!

[Denise DiNoto @deescribes]

Excited to spend my lunch listening to @DrKaraAyers talking about dismantling ableism. Starting right off with language!
