Every Day Is Rare Disease Awareness Day
wtflerosis: monologues from the neuromuscular carousel
A piece I wrote for Rare Disease Awareness Day. What's the ask? What's at stake?
info_outlineEpisode 17–Coda: Re-entry. Final monologue of this act, about moving start lines and ghosts. These three final monologues done in one day (Ep 15, 16 & 17) are going up to conclude this...act? (season?) I know you think I've been holding back on the vulnerability...so, to build to intermission, these last few were deliberately done when I wasn't feeling remotely "on" or "well" or certainly "ready". Because...who is feeling like that right now?
