Perhaps you’re in the same boat, feeling helpless, unheard, unnoticed, unsafe – often disrespected – by a system of government set to vote on issues central to your wellbeing. Your life.

It takes a certain type of privilege to be able to cut funding and support for those with disability and illness. The…
