Hey artist

I swear the UK is the worst for it... it's improving but not much!! but I was on the wrong side of it the other day - was sitting in my friends car and this lady came up to her and was like "you can walk fine why do you have a disabled badge? you're both young"...

I hate "cheating" the system take Thursday - social worker visited me to fill in some forms - and she is trying to exagerate things so that I can continue to get 24 hr care funded (I sort of imagine that as I have almost no movement, can't transfer, can't feed myself, can't go to the bathroom on my own, need night turns, etc or do anything without help I kind of need it... but they are trying to remove funding.. grrr )

oh well!!!

have you thought of a "cool" oap shopping thing on wheels? the scurge of modern UK.

How come you now live in HK?

People are so rude - they dont open doors, they stand there and stare whilst you struggle to get through them (which is why I have broken 3 at uni so far..) or they just totally blank you (if you're a wheelchair user)...`

LOL oh well... the joys of living in the UK - I suppose we are just lucky to have a good NHS (well... sorta good) and social services support or I'd be so stuffed!!

hope you are doing ok

Rosie xxxx
