A note to non-disabled people: don& #39;t question clearly stated access needs. Ever. It& #39;s not up to you to decide what a disabled person can/cannot do. Disabilities are dynamic. 1/5

Some days I can walk easily some days I cannot. Accessible parking helps me on all those days - whether I have my cane or braces or I& #39;m trying to push through without. 2/5

If your sentence starts with caveats just stop yourself. If someone says they can& #39;t manage stairs, that means no stairs. "Just one step" is not ok. If someone can& #39;t manage standing for long then they need a place to sit. No they can& #39;t stand for "just a few minutes." 3/5

And when I say "can& #39;t" I don& #39;t mean that in the way you& #39;re thinking. If I were in an absolute emergency I could do some of the things I have accommodations for. But my accommodations prevent me from flaring and keep me out of the hospital. 4/5

They& #39;re non negotiable. And honestly it takes so much confidence and self-love to ask for them that it truly hurts when someone judges me for them. Don& #39;t make disabled people feel guilty for caring for themselves and asserting their access needs. 5/5 #DisabilityTwitter
