Help needed for "e", a local organizer I know. After developing #LongCovid, e also lost housing & possessions when an oil refinery covered them w/ toxic fumes. They've finally secured new housing, but need help w/ rent & medical costs while long-term supports are pending. chuffed.org/project/supp...

Heads up that BC’s free COVID rapid test program is being cut off. More info: www2.gov.bc.ca/gov/content/.... Many pharmacies still have stock, so if you need tests (esp if you don’t have means to purchase them), nab some ASAP! List of participating pharmacies: www.bcpharmacy.ca/pharmacy-ser...

Last week to take the first national survey about disabled experiences in Canadian film & TV! If you’re disabled (or have worked with disabled talent) in the industry, OR if you want to work in the sector but can’t due to barriers, this 10 min survey is for you: www.dso-orphe.ca/survey/

Thank you so much to @skycameron.bsky.social for sharing your story as a singer with #LongCovid - just in time for National AccessAbility Week as well! #NAAW2025

So excited to finally be able to announce this project, and to have the opportunity to work alongside some incredible artists, researchers, and subject matter experts across Canada!

Today's the #BlueSunday2025, the “tea party for ME”! The idea behind this annual community tradition is simple: ☕ Sip some tea 🤳 Snap some photos for socials 💙 Support an #MECFS charity if you can by donating what you’d have paid at a café! I'm joining in to celebrate, alongside #pwME worldwide.

Today’s #MECFS Awareness Day, and I have lots of thoughts but not enough energy to express all of them. Instead, here are pics from just some of the Awareness initiatives I’m taking part in - plus eight reasons why, year after year, I raise awareness for ME & other complex chronic illnesses...

Just a few moments that stuck out to me from today's #MillionsMissing rally in Vancouver: Dr. Susan Kuo from @protectbc.bsky.social, describing how the burden of disease & disability for #LongCovid has surpassed cancer & heart disease, without any commensurate investment in research or care. 1/8

Update: I’m going to speaking at this event by proxy! One of the #MillionsMissing BC organizers will be reading my speech. Catch the event via livestream tomorrow (like I plan to), or mask up & head to Vancouver’s Jack Poole plaza, to show up in person for those of us who can’t. #MECFS #pwME

Heads up, health justice allies! On May 10, #MillionsMissing BC is calling for improved #MECFS healthcare in BC. Don a mask & join in-person at Jack Poole Plaza at 1 pm, or submit a message online. Details/access info: www.facebook.com/share/1AkW1E... RSVP/send message: forms.gle/uWWfUx34VNNX...

Psst - I’m in @broadwayworld.com! Check it out: www.broadwayworld.com/bwwopera/art... #pwME #MECFS #ChronicIllness

If you haven’t heard from me for awhile, this is one reason why! I’ve been working on @operamariposa.bsky.social’s #BAMonth2025 for several months, & it’s finally live. I hope you’ll join us to support vital advocacy, education, research & community resources for #MECFS, #LongCovid & #fibro.

Much love for Filipinx comrades and community impacted by horrific violence during Lapu-Lapu Day celebrations. For ppl seeking support such as meal train or counseling, you can access resources thru Filipinx-led mutual aid network coming together. Share widely: docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1F...

The Disability Screen Office (DSO) has launched the first national survey to capture experiences of the disability community in film & TV. Open through June 2025. Input helps develop a Best Practices Guide to Disability Engagement in the Canadian Film & Television Industry! www.dso-orphe.ca/survey/

My friend Katie has an upcoming surgery (on her birthday, of all days!), and needs community support during her recovery. It would mean the world to me if you’d check out her surgery+birthday wish list or consider sharing: bit.ly/Katie-surger... 💜 #fibro #EDS #endo #MCAS #IIH #HighRiskCovid19
