1. How disabled children can enlighten the rest of us

I have to say that most people are very kind and as helpful as they can think of being and wouldn't dream of refusing to compromise in order to help make the life of a disabled child and his or her carers easier.

2. I haven't stopped dancing

The thing that people always want to know is what happened to my daughter to make her so disabled.

3. When caring for carers can be done carelessly

On the radio last night, during a programme about disability, someone said that the world is divided between the disabled and the not-yet disabled.

4. Please help us build somewhere we can cry

Right here in Wokingham there are families whose children are so severely disabled that they often feel they can't leave the house.

5. A rubbish idea for carers

In the local news this week is a piece about the council's intention to reduce the amount of rubbish households are allowed to produce to 80 bags a year.

6. An average day of chasing, badgering and reminding

7. The parking spaces some people think are theirs

Despite all the concessions, parking the car with a disabled person to think about is really not easy.

8. The value of talking to those who can't talk to you

When you have a small child who is not yet talking, it is vital that you keep the chat going.

9. Forced to go private for a vital appointment

Finally we have an appointment with the Ear, Nose and Throat Consultant. Though not at the Royal Berks, privately, at the Berkshire Independent.

10. Pointless hurdles to essential care

One thing that is more annoying that having to go to all the hospital appointments we have is actually getting the appointments in the first place.
