my favorite part of this post is seeing people in the notes whose hearts have been touched. if you don’t mind, I’d like to share a few.
keep in mind: this is nowhere near everyone. Some responses were too short, some were too long - I heavily advise you to go look in the notes yourself. And I’m sure many people reblogged this with just sorting tags or nothing at all, and that’s wonderful.
I made this post for myself, mostly. while I don’t do everything on the aforementioned list, I do apply to quite a few - but, ultimately, it was for me. I never expected it to boom like this.
And yet, it did. And that is a wonderful, wonderful thing. This post has helped people, even in small ways, something I never imagined. It’s wonderful.
so here, let me add a few more I missed. some taken from notes, some of my own.
people who pee in a bag
people who can’t brush their hair
people who can’t wash the dishes
people with stomas and catheters
people who are gassy
people who have constipation issues
people with chronic hives/red bumpy skin/MRSA
people with heavy birthmarks
people with bugs in their homes/car/etc
people with constant runny/bloody noses
people who can’t do certain things from depression
people who need help getting out of bed
people who eat in bed and have crumbs in there
people who can’t clean their sheets
people who can’t make their bed
people with shower chairs
and even more that I had to have missed. Again, please add on.
So for this July, every one after, and all the months in between, just remember: You are loved. You are not alone. The notes both below and above prove that. I promise I am not lying. You are a wonderful, beautiful person, no matter what you can/can’t do, and no matter what you look like. You deserve to be heard and listened to. Your voice and opinion matters.
