Welcome!

My name is Jessica, I am 34 years old. I am An inspiring poet and writer. My two passions in life have always been the creative arts and people, I also consider myself to be an advocate for people with disabilities, both visible and invisible. Being wheelchair bound by Spastic Cerebral Palsy since the age of four. I grew up in the special education system, and once I turned 18 years old and began to move into the "real world" the shift in services that the state provides to you as a child v.s. the services you have to choose from going into adulthood is very wide; too wide in my opinion. Which brings me to why I wanted to start this blog. While I respect all the information, and resources that is readily available for children with disabilities, the little to no services to help them transition into adulthood once they reach the legal age of 18 is extremely frustrating. It is my hope that with this blog, I can reach out to people in both the visible and invisible disabled community, and be an ally to them. It is also hope that as this blog grows; we grow to help one another. And to help the world to understand just how important it is to not only be recognized as part of society, but to be seen as equals. I hope that when you come to my blog that you find it to be a safe, and welcoming place to share and be heard. Take care! - Jessica

Introduction: Hello Everyone! We’re officially back from our summer hiatus! I am thrilled to announce that we’re back with an all-new book review! It’s a fiction young adult novel by a prolific writer, Amy Beth Outland. The book is called, “Roll With The Punches.” “Roll With The Punches” Is the latest book in Ms. Outland’s series entitled, “ I’m Not Broken Series.” I met Amy online through a mutual friend. Being that we both share a love for writing and poetry. (Amy also writes poetry). When Amy first began promoting her current book online, I jumped at the chance to get an advanced proof copy of the book to have the opportunity to read her work for the first time. I have to admit right off the bat that I haven’t read any young adult fiction in a very long time. I was nervous to read it for no other reason than that I felt “rusty.” I hadn’t read anything unrelated to my writing endeavors for quite a while. This was one of the first times I looked forward to reading somethi...

Part 1: Polycystic Ovary Syndrome: Don’t be surprised if you hear, “I have that too."

    Polycystic Ovary Syndrome Is a very common, and miss diagnosed condition, among women between the ages of 20-40.  And can cause infertility with polycystic ovaries. The statics vary as to how many women have PCOS because the criteria for the condition is always changing. But here is what I found under The National Institutes Of Health. One in every 10-15 women gets diagnosed with PCOS. I also heard that about 50% of women do not know they have PCOS. Via, pcosdiva.com I also found on the site, rightdiagnoisis.com that about 50% of women are insulin resistant. The typical age bracket for being insulin resistant is about 20-40 years of age.  And about only 30% have symptoms of PCOS. PCOS is a syndrome that not only affects fertility but can affect metabolism, insulin levels, high blood pressure and much more. t is a syndrome that not only affects fertility but can affect metabolism, insulin levels, high blood pressure and much more. How to diagnose? You...
