Hair is done (by the AMAZING @trumane_hair_studio, seriously, you should have seen how crunchy it looked when I went in there ๐Ÿ˜†) so now Iโ€™m ready to head to D.C. with @bia_usa to advocate for the brain injury community by speaking with our legislators about some important initiatives we need their support on.

Iโ€™ve made my (packing) list, checked it twice, traveling while disabled is more naughty than nice! ๐Ÿ˜‚ But regardless, Cazzy Claus is cominโ€™, to toooowwwwn! Okay, obviously Christmas is my favorite holiday and bad jokes are my jam, but Iโ€™m taking this opportunity very seriously. Itโ€™s not often that you to get to be amongst this many individuals in the brain injury community, particularly while being able to speak directly to your representatives about the issues that affect us most.

Iโ€™m thinking about making a video sharing some of my trips for how I prepared for this trip in terms of packing-which is such a difficult thing to do when traveling (โ€œWhat do I wear for this event?โ€, โ€œWhat if we go out to eat afterwards?โ€, โ€œWhat happens if it starts raining?โ€โ€ฆ.โ€œMy silk press!!!โ€) but itโ€™s even more difficult when youโ€™re dealing with a brain injury or other disabilty. The cognitive load, not to mention the physical practicalities of packing and travel can be more than a challenge, so I think it would be helpful to share some of the things that make it more accessible for me.

You can head to biausa.org for more info about how you can support, even if you donโ€™t have a brain injury yourself!๐Ÿ’ช๐Ÿฝ๐Ÿง 

See you soon, D.C.!๐ŸŽ‰
