Proudly wearing my Dynamically Disabled shirt while siting in a wheelchair at the airport on my way to participate in a clinical trial.
Come at me - I dare you!

Welcome to living with a dynamic disability compliments of Long Covid.

Sometimes I can walk, sometimes I need a cane, sometimes I need a wheelchair, sometimes I can’t move at all.

Talk about a mind-fuck.

What I don’t need is to worry about being judged.

Dynamic Disability: a condition where symptoms fluctuate in severity and impact over time, causing a person's abilities to change.

Spread awareness to take away the embarrassment & Stop the stigma of chronic illness - there is no “try harder”

“Instead of telling patients ‘I don’t know what’s wrong,’ we should be saying, ‘This meets the criteria for Long Covid.’”

Although the info isn’t groundbreaking, hope looks like the AAMA educating medical assistants on what Long Covid is.

Plus offering CEUs.

Long Covid ripped out of my life suddenly and left me isolated and terrified. Each Tuesday, these ladies have my back: anger, disbelief, laughs, tears, “Ha! Yep! Me too!”

If you suffer from any chronic illness, Messy podcast is the home you didn’t know you needed. You are not alone 💕

On my way to do my part to help find answers by participating in the Reverse-LC trial at University of Minnesota.

Long Covid stole so much of my life, it feels good to do something positive.

Is it just me or do other Long Covid suffers read headlines like this one and think:

“No shit Sherlock! Welcome to the party. We’ve been telling you this for yearsssss.”

Followed immediately by gratitude for scientists investigating Long Covid to someday lead to treatments.

My fellow chronic illness & Long Covid sufferers who don’t have the words to describe the mind numbing fatigue - listen to Lance’s description in Nevertheless, Persisting with Amy Blackstone. (starts at 7:15)

Normal words cannot be used for abnormal things.

Reverse-LC trial at Univ. Of Minnesota four month visit ☑️

Happy to report as of today there are 110 Long Covid participants over four sites. The goal is 550.

The trial coordinator I met with said there is talk of adding 13 more sites for accessibility.

Hope 🌈🌈🌈

And Sally said ‘Sometimes someone has to come along and put a wreath on the tomb of the time.’”

Thank you!

Nothing better than randomly picking up @bridgetcrocker.bsky.social book
@milkweededitions.bsky.social while visiting Univ of Minn for a Long Covid study and reading our lives intersected in CA.

Hubby & I saw the same sign when we rafted here with his buddies while at Edwards AFB.

Long Covid and Infection Associate Chronic Conditions hope looks like the expert panel at today’s case competition at University of Michigan 🌈🌈🌈

Exciting to hear the great minds committed to researching diagnosis, identification, and treatments

Start Here: If you think your child may have Long Covid
From @longcovidfam.bsky.social

This is where to begin. Our Start Here guide walks you through what to look for, what questions to ask, and how to talk with your child’s clinician or school.

I’m grateful chronic illness is included by @drdoylesays.bsky.social when speaking of living with and healing from trauma.

Fighting the stigma of “You’re faking to game the system” and “Because it would never happen to me, you must be making it up” takes energy we don’t have.

I love the depiction of brain fog in Long Covid.

Although I wish Bright Bytes didn’t use an old person.

And does anyone know what Bright Bytes is? It popped up in my FB feed and says it’s a “digital creator”.

I will happily share my story and be the poster person for “You don’t want Long Covid” if it could save others from suffering this awful disabling virus.

Long Covid has caused me to be compared to Parkinson’s patients by my physical therapist. An excerpt from In The Space Between where I describe my devastation here:

The message RFK sent to those of us battling Long Covid for years:

F**k you. Go ahead and get the virus that caused your disability again. Your hard work battling to regain mobility and cognition don’t matter.

My children thank the senators who confirmed RFK. They love having a disabled mom.

Diane Sawyer’s interview with Dr. Miller at UCSF about Bruce Willis & FTD.

Dr: This will be the most exciting 10 years in the history of FTD
DS: You think in 10 years there could be a breakthrough?
Dr: Absolutely. I’m convinced.

My dr predicts the same about Long Covid.
