Trying to stay focused on a spark of hope this Imbolc, as the light returns. 🕯️🌻

This year it feels like I need to really concentrate to see the light in the dark, instead of it coming to me, as it used to, like the sun at dawn.

I’ve been deaf since childhood, only hearing the world properly for the first time in my 40s.

I wrote about my high frequency hearing loss, and how specialist hearing aids changed my life.

#Ableists are insensitive jerks, lacking humane compassion & who forget that they're not immune to becoming #disabled too. No one has that lifelong immunity.
Treat #PeopleWithDisabilities better or expect us to keep raising a lot of ruckus.
We're fighting for our human rights, for equity & for inclusion. We won't shut up until you all do better.

The principal of a #SpecialNeeds #school says they are seeing more #AccessCalgary #bus suspensions for their $students.

#CalgaryQuest School, which relies on the city’s #PublicTransportation service for #PeopleWithDisabilities for almost all of their 160 students, is upset that 10% of their students have been #banned from buses.
