Another much-needed conversation. This episode is regarding the hate we get from uninformed people. This one is about those of us with invisible illnesses who get sneered at, dirty looks, mean comments and hurtful notes on our cars because we park in a handicap spot and don't visibly look ill. Join MS warrior Katie in her plight to get us an "invisible illness" parking placard. Listen on as we talk about examples of what some people struggling with visible illnesses go through daily when they mind their own business, fighting an unbearable struggle, and getting berated when parking in a handicap parking spot.

From Katie:

Invisible diseases and disabilities are real! If you have been diagnosed with an invisible illness or know a friend or family member that has one, unfortunately, they can be targeted for cruel acts.

Have you ever had a nasty note left on your car? Or have you been harassed? Has your vehicle been vandalized? Have the police ever been called on you for using your handicap placard?

These are cruel acts that happen every day, and it has to stop!

I created a petition on change.org to do just that! This appeal is to help spread awareness for invisible diseases and disabilities and to help educate the society that we live in today.
