First day of 'hope':

Okay, not going to lie, I'm getting excited now XD Ahaha some fun acting adventure is what I think I've needed... Ahaha x Gonna be sad once it's over now lol 😆 xx Thank you to everyone who have been so kind with your words of support and encouragement. Some of you know how hard this is for me and *13:33 lol* as I'm typing, and anyways some of you know the times I've barely clawed myself out of the darkness so I'm extremely grateful to know such amazing people like you. I've made some life long friends online and they haven't a clue how much I value them. I love you guys 🫶. For real. 💯 But yes, you have ALL helped get me here, to this point, about to act in a murder mystery and knowing all I've been through you know that this is something I'd never have imagined two years ago and even my own Da was worried I'd just die in my bed. I got through it.  I got out of it. 🌹 And I've worked darn hard to get here. I've done the work, much m...

A kind reminder this Christmas:

Image
As I've been doing work with my son on A Christmas Carol, I just thought I'd share some history. The Poor Law was amended in 1834, sending anyone suffering from poverty to prisons and workhouses, and many families were split up. Charles Dickens published A Christmas Carol in December 1843, because he himself found himself struck by poverty when his father (middle class family) was arrested due to debt. He had to work at Warren's Blacking Factory when he was 12 years old, during the period his father was imprisoned for debt, his job was to paste labels onto the blacking pots. Because of this he felt that EDUCATION was the best way to TACKLE poverty and not people being penalised when they were already at their lowest. This inspired the five staves of A Christmas Carol and the tale of redemption. Remember not everyone is lucky enough to stay safe and warm these winter months and poverty is still a huge issue in modern day society. Remember that the poor aren't poor by cho...

Junction 7 update: CCTV lost/deleted!!!

Image
Update in regards to Junction 7. Junction 7 (tagged as it refers to your charity.) I hide nothing. I'm not happy with this and will escalate a complaint directly to (town) Police . This is not good enough. S. Email correspondence: #unsafe #abusersprotected #biasedpolice #negligence #failuretoprotect #notgoodenough #disabilitysupport #DisabilityAdvocacy Email from police reads: "Good afternoon Sarah,   I hope you are well,   My biggest apologies I have just returned from sick leave in the last 2 days and have been catching up as best as I can.   Unfortunately, the CCTV would have been lost at this stage because GDPR only allows for CCTV to be stored for 28 days and it is therefore deleted.   If you would like your investigation to be closed that is fine and it will be closed but will keep on record for future incidents.   Thank you.   (Name)" My response reads: (Apologies for minor type errors in advance) "Good morning PC Peterkin, Thank you for getting back...

Help for the sake of helping!

Image reads:  "Why didn't you ask me for help?" Cause you saw I needed it and didn't offer it. -Soul Whispers And because not all of us have been treated with kindness when seeking help so yes we suffer instead of asking for help because people can suck and they only seem to want FAKE reputations of help and to not ACTUALLY help. Gawd forbid they ACTUALLY helped someone for the sole reason of being helpful! Help or don't, if you don't people like me will anyway, just don't be unkind and don't be abusive! Some of us have been knocked down more times than we can count and we're only still alive today because it's bigger than us. We have people we matter to and we actually make a difference and if YOU HAVEN'T HEARD of the people I've PERSONALLY helped or the differences I've made then LET THAT TELL YOU EVERYTHING about WHY I help others as opposed to believing nasty lies and assuming I don't. I don't care if you can't see w...

You don't know what you don't know:

Don't talk to me about life, especially MY life, unless you have survived some real AF shiii! You only assume to know about me, you don't even know what you don't know. So STFU when it comes to:  (Including but not limited to:) 🎃 my disability 🎃 my pain management 🎃 how I enquire about things (politely and kindly btw) 🎃 My blogging 🎃 my mental health 🎃 my intentions 🎃 my body 🎃 my choices 🩷 my son 🎃 how YOU misunderstand me 🎃 how I manage my finances 🎃 how i navigate life with invisible disabilities You don't know. That's the facts! You just DON'T know. You usually believe false narratives or you assume. That's on you bro. That's on YOU! Peace and love.

'Community':

Image
 With what's been happening with me being targeted recently for not being willing to tolerate disrespect and abuse, the term community has been on my mind an awful lot. What is a community and what does it mean? A common unit/common unity? Why are some people in a community so quick to attack or be abusive under the guise of 'doing good'? Why don't we have such decent communities anymore? Why are people fueled by hate more? And a meme I saw made me think even harder about it, as I'm someone whose been there before, seeking help and been met with abuse or disrespect or worse for being vulnerable, for seeking help. This needs to stop. Everyone deserves help when they're struggling. I thought about how I personally defined community, what is a community to me? Community is about being there for your fellow neighbors, whether you can stand them or not. It's about pulling people out of their darkest places on their darkest days without doing it for the sole purpo...

Finally, some good news and I'm grateful to be getting the right support once again:

 It took a few hours of phone calls but I managed to plead the facts of my case and PIP have accepted my mobility impairment and I've been awarded mobility pip again. Thank you everyone here who helped with my confidence to appeal their decision (I wasn't going to) but it's not really our, nor the decision makers fault, that I can't take any prescription medicine because they simply don't work and make me worse. They're accepting my cannabis use for pain management and I have a cannabis professional Dr's appointment on the 23rd Oct. Cost me £50 but it's worth it. I sent over my pain connect clinicians letter as I don't have involvement from rheumatology because my condition is incurable and it would waste NHS finances, like it did when I was constantly in and out of hospital with the opiates/opioids. I have a referral to a hospital pain clinic and I'm taking on additional excruciatingly high amounts of pain to manage my disability and mobility an...
