I am looking for participants for a panel on being a disabled professional woman with a family etc. (Love, Marriage, Children, and Career … with challenges). This is in response to a CFP for Women's HerStory Month 2014 at BMCC. If I'm going to pull this off, I'm going to need help. I'm looking for others (besides me) who are doing this dance. In particular, I'm looking for women, because I think women who are wives and mothers (and disabled) have a particular take on taking care of others, while taking care of ourselves. I'm looking for both volunteers and referrals. Please don't hesitate to refer this request to faculty or staff at your institution. Feel free to share my blog, my contact information etc. I'm thinking somebody out there knows somebody who has combined these roles and can talk about how it works.

I certainly balance these things, but unfortunately it would be difficult for me to get to your neck of the woods! However, we did repost this in several GimpGirl communities to help you find somebody. :-)

Please contact me. I might be able to help. If not, always want to connect with other moms with disabilities. Mine are 3 and 1.

Why three wheels?My name is Robin Brown. This is a picture of my "magic carpet." When I'm at work it's probably parked at the commuter rail station about a mile from my house. I get to ride three wheels because my right leg doesn't like to show up for work. I flunked riding two wheels. Archives
