Yes, it’s finally over. We can get back to whatever we were doing before this started … what was it, two years ago? And now the work, to open healthcare access for all, begins.
Read how one young woman handled poor treatment when the proctor almost didn’t let her take the GRE’s because of her insulin pump ( Rules Riles a Diabetic Test Taker ). As you can see from the comments, this isn’t “news” to most of us.
It’s another example of how people who don’t have any health issue have difficulty understanding the scope of the challenges we face!
The blog tour is on — Here’s where we’ve been this week and where we’ll be next week. FYI - chronic babe, scheduled for Wed. 11.5, broke her wrist so she’s off the schedule for now)
Monday, Nov 3 - Rhymes with Migraine, I wrote a blog post on the Top 5 Things You Should and Shouldn’t Do to Manage your Chronic illness at Work.
Tuesday Nov 4- Somebody Heal Me, Diana Lee, interviews me asking why we wrote the book and specifics about communicating at work.
Thursday Nov 6-Muchtomysjogren, asked me to write about how I handle disclosure at work and personal — and how much is too much.
Fri Nov 7 - Howtocopewithpain asked me to respond to a reader’s question: How do you explain an apparent lack of ambition or lack of enthusiasm for the job?
Mon Nov 10 -celia chicks are hosting a contest and giveaway
Tues Nov 11 -achronic dose, Laurie Edwards interviews me about the book’s focus, the warrior spirit and more.
Wed Nov 12 -despite lupus, asked me to respond to this question: Why do you give so much attention to the issue of talking about chronic illness and do you think this is more difficult for women than men?
Yes, it’s finally over. We can get back to whatever we were doing before this started … what was it, two years ago? And now the work, to open healthcare access for all, begins.
