Today was a good day

#ra speaks #personal #went to see a podiatrist after my ortho was like lol silly you don’t qualify for accommodations it’s just pain deal w it #and the doc was like 👀 bestie we are getting you a permenant disability parking placard and ordering you a custom brace #the ppl who’ve been making me show insert for the last decade always said I had unicorn feet #as in ‘Jesus christ what the fuck is that that’s not real that’s impossible HOW DO YOU WALK??’ #so it’s really validating to have a doc tell me my pain is real and my needs are valid if not necessary to continue being mobile for work #after that ortho was so dismissive and infantilizing…I’m just happy to have something in the works so I can y’know not have to drop out #bc I’m in too much pain to sleep let alone walk to class/work
