Episode notes
Chapter 9: Resilience details my life’s journey marked by both rewarding relationships with long-time carers and troubling encounters with others. I’ve had to dismiss three carers for theft, including one who defrauded me. A particularly distressing experience involved a new carer, Anne, whose actions led to a false accusation and a significant investigation by the care company, altering my care arrangement drastically. Despite these challenges, I’ve conceived visionary projects like Second Life Agency and considered starting my own accessible accommodations and wheelchair manufacturing. These aspirations, alongside the struggles with carers and personal loss, highlight my undying resilience and hope for a better future. My story is one of triumph over adversity, advocating for the strength to overcome obstacles and envision a brighter tomorrow.
