Growing up with hearing loss & physical disability isn't always easy! For this reason, I was asked to write & share my journey with the @CHHABC's newly launched feature called "In My Corner: stories about people with hearing loss." To read, see -> Link: bit.ly/47hGTaY .

This is so sad and shocking! #friends was my all-time favourite TV show. Loved the characters, Monica & Chandler as a couple. #RestInPeace Matthew Perry. 😢☹️🥹
"'Friends' wouldn’t have been 'Friends' without Matthew Perry.
And neither would have been, as time went by, American culture. The actor, who infused the hit show with its vital, sustaining dose of sarcasm, went on in recent years to publicize his sobriety, and his work bringing others out of addiction through the founding of a sober living house. His death, at 54 in an apparent drowning, comes as a shock, in part because Perry seemed to have a second act lying ahead of him."

I had a great opportunity to master the voice control on my laptop. Big thanks to @NeilSquireSoc's Digital Jumpstart Program for the help! In fact, here is a success story about my experience about another barrier I have overcome! Link --> bit.ly/42W8U5E .

Pink Shirt Day is a day when people wear pink shirts to symbolize a stand against bullying & today is that day! No one has the right to be disrespectful or to harass anyone at any time. Let us all end bullying by wearing pink today, talk to someone (don't stay silent) & speak up!

To all the disabled people out there who might be struggling with self-worth today, remember that you are loved and you brilliant and you are beautiful.
Ableism has nothing on you.
