The Anthology:
Letters to today's disabled youth
As part of our upcoming anthology which seeks to capture what it means to live with and not in spite of chronic illness and disability. We are looking for short reflections (around 250 words), on what you would tell your younger self or a disabled child or young person. We recognise that many of us walked hallways filled with peers who didn't understand what it was like to live with a health condition, not knowing what the future would look like. Children and young people are still walking those same hallways we once did, and this is our contribution to the next generation. So if you have a moment and a few words to spare, consider writing a letter to your childhood self and to the children and young people of the future.
