Autism is talked about quite often, but very rarely is it portrayed in media, and even more rarely do we see it explained properly. That's where this amazing comics creator known as AspiGurl comes in. She creates funny, quirky, and sweet comics about her life and the struggles she runs into as an autistic girl. We get to read the comics and better understand from the view of a person with the developmental disorder.
In part one we talked about how to know if you qualify for disability and the right time to file for disability. In part two, we will discuss medical stuff

The Reformed Church in America encourages churches to celebrate Disability Sunday on October 11 and the Christian Reformed Church on October 18. This year, our theme is Agility. Terry DeYoung, Coordinator for Disability Concerns Ministry of the RCA writes, In my efforts to do life everyday—working, driving, shopping, socializing, participating in church, etc.—the physical disabilities I’ve had since birth require that I figure out stuff all the time. I must anticipate, plan, be vulnerable, and negotiate. That’s why I may say things like: “Can you help me with this? . . . Are there any other options? . . . That’s why I requested this accommodation in advance. . . . No, I’ve got this, but thanks for offering to help.” I don’t delight in coming across as a high-maintenance person who needs to have things my way. Agility calls for my respectful negotiation with others in order to function in a world that wasn’t designed with me in mind. Contrary to assumptions, people with disabilities tend to be highly agile, because they must navigate physical and social structures that are created by and for people who do not have disabilities. In this way, we can and often do “dis-able” people from participating in and joining our churches. Healthy church communities learn from people who have disabilities and provide opportunities for them to lead. Ideas to celebrate disability week include these: Use the attached bulletin insert and slides for worship. Distribute one or both of our Disability Emphasis Week devotionals to the congregation.

First, let me make mention that yesterday, February 2, was World Rheumatoid Awareness Day. RA is the original beast in my world, having brought with it the disability and the broken feets and the CRPS and all the other mean and nasty stuff. By itself, though, RA is more than enough. . . This past…

Have you ever wondered where God is when all the bad stuff happen? Have you thought about why He didn't show up when you lost your job? Where was God when your loved on died? Or why didn't he do anything when He saw that you were coming to this world with a disability? Or…

wonder...what if doctors, specialist, therapist, teachers and support teams all viewed a disability diagnosis as a means to provide the tools and resources needed to reach maximum success in life, instead of it being presented as something negative that holds you back or limits it. What if we changed the way the system operates.
