Talk To Me



Rachael has some things she'd like to say about assumptions people make about disability, some of which happen because people don't talk to her and only see the disability.

Which leads to incidents assuming she doesn't have her own mind, like when she asked for a tatoo.

And a young poet receives a computer so she can compose independently via eye movements, thanks to a Swedish company.

Rachael is beautiful and I would love to talk to her. Does she have a blog or website for communication?

[O/T-Ruth you post so fast I can hardly keep up - actually I can't keep up. I have to skim cause I'm out of breath trying to read your posts. P.S. Love the new blog look]

Tausign:

LOL yes I post frequently. And very glad to get positive feedback on the new look, thanks.

I haven't found a website for Rachael, but you can go to YouTube and leave a comment by the video there for her if you'd like.

I have very mixed feelings about that video but it was interesting to watch it.
