It seems that
during this Spring season, there are a lot of germs in the air, and people are
getting different illnesses.
A lot of times, people are afraid to speak out
about being sick because they may hear negative responses, like " We're
doing all we can." The importance about opening up about our body is to
keep track of what is going on, and then to be able to notice when something's
not right, like side effects of medicines.
I got myself into a tight situation
at work, after falling while working outside, and having a hard time getting
up. I kept working, and tried to tell people I didn't feel well, but they
didn't listen. One of my coworkers spoke up for me, and said I was serious,
then they listened.
The point I want to make is: opening up also means to express what you are
feeling with your body. People need to respect and listen because it could be
serious. We also need to follow up with our doctor often to keep up with our
body.
I say that everyone, disabled or not, has a right to speak up and speak
out about what is on their mind. A lot of times when people do speak up, a lot
of ignorance goes on, and I want to see more people being heard,because often
times families don't find out until you get hurt.
The bottom line is that
people need to open up, and the rest of us need to listen harder.
After while
crocodile!
