Hi, I'm Dana, a multiply-disabled woman and wheelchair user who recently developed Stage 3 bladder cancer, as a result of self-catheterization. I'm raising funds to cover chemo and surgery costs, caregiver wages, and time spent away from work on FMLA.

About me: I'm a public servant and disability justice advocate. I work supporting disabled people and older adults with mental health disabilities to live well in their homes and communities. I'm also a graduate student at George Washington University. I love hanging out with my service dog, Wednesday, and cat, Dorothy, eating my way around Washington, DC, and reading, writing, and watching sci-fi.

Your contributions will provide life-saving care, and hopefully get me back to these joys!

Anything you can give is appreciated! Please share widely with your networks!
