Thank you for this video! Question: I am disabled and At a concert I’m going to (I don’t go to concerts so keep that in mind I’m very nervous ha). This venue says all medications must be accompanied by the prescription. Do you know what they mean by that? Do they mean I have to bring ALL my bottles instead of just my little medicine pouch, or if I can just bring a little sheet with my meds on my list. I have no idea how to do this or how it works. I’m assuming I can bring a separate bag for them since it’s disability related.
How exciting!!! I would interpret that as you would need to bring in the prescription bottle for any medications that you bring in. Essentially, it sounds like they just need to make sure that the pills are prescribed to you. Although this isn't ideal, just remember that if you need to bring in a medical bag to carry these bottles it would be covered under the ADA even if the bag is bigger than their allotted size. Side note: There's a chance that they may not even check your bag anyways, but if they do just know that you have the protection of the ADA on your side!! Have fun at your concert!!! Do you have any video requests of topics you'd like to see be covered on my channel?
@@Dunn.a1 Thank you so much! Honestly I love learning about like prep tips for out of the house things, like this video about what to pack when you go out, or how to prep for things in advance! They are so helpful
❤❤❤❤
🤟🏻🤟🏻🤟🏻🤟🏻
Awesome Video! Great tips.
Glad it was helpful!
Being a guy I can’t do the ovulation thing, but everything else was appropriate advice. Thanks.
haha! Too bad you weren't a male sea horse. Then, you could relate to it! Nevertheless, I'm glad you found this video helpful :)
I have a low blood cell count and I'm very anemic, I use raw sugar packets in my bag and I eat them when I am dizzy! My store sells a pack of 25 for 90 cents, it is by the "sugar in the raw" company.
I love that brand! I use them in my oatmeal. I'm happy you found something that helps you! :)
As somebody who is just getting diagnosed with hyperadrenergic pots and EDS in their late 20s, I really appreciate this video because to me it feels like we are normalizing disabilities, and that anybody can get them and we just have to find our own ways of living. Just thank you for talking about it. For the first time in a while, I feel very seen!
Absolutely! Disability is a part of the human experience. I'm really happy that this video was helpful for you! If there are any specific videos you'd like, let me know and ill be happy to add them to the list. I'm currently working on a video about disability + chronic illness representation in books/ stories where the main character is disabled. I hope you like it :)
What a nice video dear.👍
Thank you so much 😊 I'm glad it was helpful
You did great job ! 加油 !
Thank you!!
Nice to meet you . hello from China🖖
Hello 👋 Thanks for watching
What about carrying stuff if you have no car 😊
Amazon has great wagons with different wheels so like if you’re going off road they have that and sand ones it’s dope
When I lived in Florida i used a beach wagon since they can carry a lot in there and the wheels are big enough to go over grass/sand/woodchips, etc. If you prefer to sleep in a cabin versus a tent, there are also many campgrounds that offer furnished cabins. If getting to a campsite isn't doable for you, I've totally camped out in my front yard before lol. If that doesn't work either you could make a fort with blankets and pillows and maybe some twinkle lights.
Great
thank you!
hope you can make some more videos , i know pots and eds are so hard my son is 20 and has both and more , how do you organize your medical storage etc
Thank you for your support! My heart goes out to you and your son. EDS/POTS combo can be tough!! I have a new video coming out this month about academic accomodations in education. I'm sure your son and yourself can find some helpful info in there. Feel free to connect with me on Instagram or TikTok at Dunn.a1
I just started the video, but I wanted to drop a quick thank you for having captions! - a hearing-impaired viewer
Absolutely!! I am a huge disability access advocate. I use CC for a sensory proessing disorder. I'm glad I could make your viewing easier.
"promo sm" 😒
?
The instant ice packs are such a good idea!!
For sure!! I keep an ice roller and ice gel packs in my freezer so I can use those at home but the one time use instant ice packs are for when I go out. Heat is such a big trigger for me!
Love this bag! 💖 I make similar content to yours about living with chronic illness and I'll definitely have to try this out 💕
Its so nice to meet other chronic illness creators. Chronic illness sucks. I hope you can find a good treatment plan 💜
@@Dunn.a1 thank you ❤️
My daughter keeps some alcohol wipes in her bag. Smelling the alcohol pad seems to help with nausea. She also keeps a couple of plastic bags and wipes in case of a vomiting episode.
Alcohol wipes are great! I keep them next to my bed as I get nausea as night. I'm happy your daughter found a helpful trick ❤️ chronic illness can be unpredictable, having a medical bag can be key in increasing the ability to care for ourselves. Sending hugs! ❤️❤️ You are not alone!
Wows that’s amazing. It’s so cool that you have everything for every situations. I love your bag. I hope to get one myself. Target better watch out!!! Thank you for looking out for those who going through something similar ❤
Thank you for your kind comment! Target has such cute items ❤I hope to raise awareness for chronic illness and provide a sense of community for those affected.
Keep it up!!!
❤️💪🏻
Thank you, Lexi! You reassured me that I can do this trip! ❤
