This was fascinating and thought provoking. I was horrified to learn about the disabled sterilisation law in 31 states and am sorry that I didn’t know it already. Thank you for this interview 💕
Despite having an adult daughter who’s disabled (by hEDS and POTS)—and becoming disabled myself last year, at 54 (stage IV cancer diagnosis)–I’m a newbie to disability issues. Thanks for this great interview! The author is thoughtful and articulate, and I look forward to reading this book and continuing my education on this so-important topic.
Thank you for this interview, Sara. My only sibling is disabled and I’ve lived my entire (able bodied) life alongside theirs, dealing with the challenges of now and also very much aware of the challenges that face us down the road. All that to say, I’m very familiar to disability yet so completely privileged as it’s not my body/brain that is experiencing it. I found this interview completely eye opening and appreciated Jessica’s insight on parenting. I’ll be reading her book!
