Managing health challenges with cerebral palsy requires resilience and support, especially when dealing with recurring C. diff infection while pursuing educational and spiritual goals. Despite the chaos of unstable care situations and upcoming medical procedures, I'm committed to expanding my podcast and preparing for a communications degree that will help me better serve the disability community.
• Currently facing challenges with caregiver staffing due to post-COVID labor shortages and low agency pay rates
• Scheduled for a fecal matter transplant (FMT) in August to treat recurring C. diff infection
• Planning to return to school on August 18th to pursue a communications degree
• Working toward becoming a priest in the Episcopal Church to serve people with disabilities
• Continuing to develop the podcast while navigating health and care challenges
• Will reintroduce hosts and format in next week's episode
If you're interested in disability awareness or want to share your story, find me on PodMatch to collaborate, or invite me as a guest on your podcast to help educate others about cerebral palsy and chronic health management.
