I am so sorry for your situation.

I have a disabled sister and stories like yours have guided my voting my entire life. Disability can happen to anyone and the rules around it are brutal/should be criminal.

I'm going to donate to my local food bank today because you've reminded me of how hard people have it.

Also thank you for being a paramedic, I agree that they don't get the recognition and benefits they deserve. It's a hard and dangerous job, with tough hours too.

ETA: I have now made that donation to the food bank.
