A Guide To Women's Issues
My two previous posts had a lot to do with the hardships and challenges that people with disabilities can be faced with in different situations, such as medical and personal matters. I based the two previous posts on my life as someone diagnosed and living with epilepsy. I didn’t think I could write anything about …
Not many people with disabilities can say they live independently, but I can. If people with disabilities do live on their own, at least those that I got to know, they live in subsidized living arrangements where the government pays for half of the living costs and are provided with cooking and cleaning services.

I recently watched an episode of ‘Major Crimes’, a spinoff show to ‘The Closer’. Those of you who are fans of detective and police related shows will know exactly what I’m talking about. The episode’s scenario was that of a well-known lawyer killing the doctor of his deceased daughter for not providing her the medical …
As I mentioned in my previous post, I’m part of a Facebook group for stay-at-home-moms. The group is called “Moms Supporting Moms”. The key word here is SUPPORT. I don’t have a lot of mom friends to turn to, and personally, I think that if I were to make new real-life mom friends, all they’d …
