Laughing About Disability

Travelling with a disability means every trip is an adventure—sometimes for the wrong reasons. From “accessible” taxis that aren’t to airport staff who forget ramps exist, I’ve learned to laugh my way through it, and I’ve created accessibility jokes.

Before you roll on, ask yourself: Is it okay to laugh about disability?
Absolutely—when it’s your own journey. Laughter makes the bumpy rides smoother.
