Constituency Appt + GENETIC testing in process

I AM MADELINE ·

2024/08/15

In this episode I speak about today's provincial constituency appointment and a genetics test that is processing. I was very grateful that friend helped me get it AKA paid for it and I'm hoping it will yield some results that will in turn yield some supports from within the British Columbia healthcare system. It's a hail Mary but at the time that the special came up on this full genome testing I was so close to running out of money that I thought if it doesn't come back before I run out of money at

A snapshot of the difficulties of disability bias, disease bias, gender bias in a day-to-day out in the world kind of a way. Plus a little about the ombudsman. I'll do a whole episode about that at some point. I'm not sure if you really be able to see it but it took a screenshot of a thank you letter I sent out to gfm donators. It really sums up that prospective I talk about in the podcast, the counterweight of gratitude and purpose. I'm not sure if you'll be able to see it well so maybe in the

Quickie update about the very dangerous cellulitis infection that's making my bad situation worse. Doing my best to keep my head up and keep my sense of humor afloat. Not sure if I should post a picture of it cuz it's really yucky so I don't know... Blech. Instead I'll post a picture of the blossoms that are helping me navigate the panic that's curling around the edges of my thoughts.

In which I talk about how I navigated the holiday season and the advocacy and healthcare battles I'm facing in the next couple of months. I do also finally talk about the nightmare suite inspection and of course that they are coming back in March even though I did everything they asked me to do. Let's just say I have thoughts and feelings about that🤨🫤. I also talk about how that inspection has participated mass hair loss to the tune of half of my hair and counting. That's got my nurse practitioner

Turned out to be surprisingly easy to convert the YouTube video to audio only so you could have it on both YouTube and the podcast platforms. I tried to play with the audio a little bit cuz my video recording app doesn't have quite as nice and audio as my usual audio recording app so I hope it's okay Once again the photos that I talk about I put up on the latest GoFundMe update if you want to see them https://gofund.me/cff39173 but one of them I was able to put here In case you'd rather view it on

Tech support on this site is trying to figure out why the link generator is generating problematic links meaning that some people especially coming from social media are not able to play on the website. So I did today's episode on youtube. I don't know how to download the audio to put it on here as well so here's the YouTube link and hopefully tech will get things sorted ASAP https://youtu.be/sm0pgHfXrjY?feature=shared I couldn't figure out how to add the photos I spoke about in the YouTube

I have much to update you on but I will do that at another time as I've overdone on textual communication this week. I wanted to let you know that I made three YouTube videos that I've set to premiere at 6:00, 6:20, and 6:35 pst tonight respectively. Then they'll set themselves up as regular public episodes. They are varying length as a tried to make them shorter but with such a complex situation that's super hard. Plus I'm super sick after two rather horrific suite inspections, which I'll tell

Less Crush More Bounce

I think the title sums it up. I talk about some good things that have happened and how I'm navigating the week leading up to the next fire suite t inspection with a little more resiliency. In the last episode I really just let it all hang out about how hard it was but also then after I got to say what's happening talk to myself back to a place of a more useful perspective I also talk about the fact that the new replacement phone for the old dying phone opens an opportunity to maybe do some YouTube

Crush

2023/11/19

Today I talk not just about the pain and exhaustion and pushing through to get ready for the second fire inspection, but individual and collective ableism creating a situation that sends the message, in no uncertain terms, whether overt or covert, my country wants me dead. But I also talk about how for most people it's really a lack of understanding. And how each person working to understand means we begin to address that larger collective ableism infecting bureaucracies medicine journalism politics

Ableist Tenancy Risk

2023/11/08

In this episode I talk about today's suite inspection, the unrealistic ableist expectations and timelines (plus assumptions of supports that don't exist within the system and definitely not for my disease; myalgic encephalomyelitis) that have been put on me by my landlords and the fire inspector. Also, with the best of intentions I know, but still ableist interactions with an official who came to support me today, plus some good things!

But I don't understand why the difficult things to keep coming at me hard and fast and I still can't get basic supports Fyi you can see the Rosemary and sunflowers that I grew in the photo in the middle of the table.

I thought I would talk through post-exertion symptom exacerbation #pese while it was happening. I know that it's very hard for somebody who hasn't experienced it to really understand what it's like. The problem is I feel so fatigue cognitively impaired that I'm not sure how clear I was. But maybe that all into itself is an explanation. Also talk about a young person I met casually diagnosed with long covid without any instruction on The perils of overdoing and how you can permanently disable
