Sarah's recommended reading list:


Top 5 books for disability, law and awareness:


1. Fake Law : The Truth About Justice in an Age of Lies - The Secret Barrister.


How our system decides who can live and who can die and how it actually works against us and was never implemented to protect us.


2. Disability Rights Handbook: Disability Rights Handbook Edition 48 April 2023 - April 2024.


The modern day up to date rights for all disabled people.


3. Helping you to identify and understand Autism Masking - Emma Kendell.


A great insight into autism and how well some individuals, especially females, mask it.


4. The complex PTSD treatment manual - Arielle Schwartz, PHD.


For a psychiatrist but equally as valuable to any reader, this book explores detailed ways on how to overcome traumatic experiences.


5. Confessions of a G.P - Dr Benjamin Daniels.


This one is more about the lack of education with Drs and how dismissive they are of people they believe are psychosomatic or emotionally linked to pain. He minimises the seriousness of fibromyalgia in chapter 'tough life syndrome'.


He could have sent her for further testing and to check her inflammation markers via a rheumatologist, and he barely grasps that the correlation isn't between trauma but more so between individuals on the autistic spectrum who are more prone to traumatic experiences.


Hope this helps!


Let me know what you think about all of these if you read them!

I'm done with Bishop Auckland college:

I got a very unprofessional email (linkedin message) today after promoting the college and resharing several courses I shared this: A colleague had been informed that due to numbers the policing course can't go ahead. (My formal complaint via email is at the bottom of this blog post) So I simply shared a list of their nutritional courses (also helpful) and added if anyone was interested in the level three policing course to enroll asap (based on the information provided we didn't want to lose the course) I received this: I still haven't heard anything official from the college yet and I'm not happy with being told I'm not allowed to share courses to enrol. But to be honest the accusations of misinformation irk me to my core especially without any official correction or context. So I've blocked Adam on LinkedIn and I'm done with Bishop Auckland College now. I am removing myself SO FAST from everyone and everywhere that chooses disrespect over thoughtfulness. ...

Ramside Hall and Northern Housing Consortium:

-

I am excited to say that the event at Ramside Hall went spectacularly well, I attended with my best friend Corin and we had such a lovely time. I gave a wonderful speech as to how Northern Housing Consortium has helped me spectacularly with a bursary for my start up business www.magnoliaphotography.co.uk and I happily share the quoted speech I gave below:  " As a start-up business, I initially struggled to  meet the demands of contractual work. Creating art by finger painting on my phone screen was time-consuming, imprecise, and physically challenging. This made it difficult to meet my clients' expectations for detail and speed. Living with chronic pain and disabilities only added to these difficulties. When I learned through Livin Futures that Northern Housing Consortium was offering a start-up bursary, I immediately applied for a drawing tablet, hoping it could change the way I work. Receiving the bursary has been truly transformative. With my new drawing tablet, I can now ...

Cheers 😔 see: https://pgpandspd.blogspot.com/2024/06/hacked-stickers-betrayal-and-pride.html I got off the phone to Paul Howarth yesterday, whilst I'm with my son in public in a cafe, the ADM meet didn't go ahead, but we stayed anyway and my son encouraged me to merely enquire about the article and why my image was not printed, Paul stated it was a space issue but I explained he'd spliced images before and how much would it cost to get the photo in the paper so I can feel positively represented by my home town as a Newtonian since his only reason was the article was FREE, anyway he got rude and abruptly stated he does a LOT for ADM and it's ALL FREE and that he feels I'm being REALLY UNFAIR and hung u...
