💨 Abstract

The author, at age nine, suffered a car accident that resulted in physical and neurodivergent disabilities, including a permanently paralyzed arm and PTSD. Navigating grief, rehabilitation, and a world that often excluded and devalued her due to ableism, the author found herself struggling emotionally and socially. In adulthood, she founded Diversability, a movement dedicated to amplifying disabled voices and promoting disability pride, joy, and culture.
