A pleasant surprise while reading this book is that I found some validation of my own. I have spent years dealing with impostor syndrome surrounding some of my own disabilities, especially since they are not considered disabilities by all individuals. This book really helped me realize that my disabilities are not only real, but valid. I want to help bring more awareness to both visible and invisible disabilities. We [individuals with disabilities] deserve that.
