Award winning children's book author, public speaker and disability activist. I champion misfits, underdogs and that weird kid nobody wanted to sit next to at lunch. (Spoiler alert: I qualify as all of the above.)

Thanks for reading. Yes, Ricky’s story did end with possibly a little more hope than is realistic. The important thing for me is that she has agency. I’ve certainly had a tough time with my arthritis, but the medicines today are much better. Fingers crossed for today’s chronically ill children.
