If you carry one thing with you today, let it be this: you are beautiful, you matter, and you are loved.

As always, we ask that in order to participate in the weekly megathread, one self-identifies as some form of disabled, which is broadly defined in the community sidebar:

“Disability” is an umbrella term which encompasses physical disabilities, emotional/psychiatric disabilities, neurodivergence, intellectual/developmental disabilities, sensory disabilities, invisible disabilities, and more. You do not have to have an official diagnosis to consider yourself disabled.

Mask up, love one another, and stay alive for one more week.

    Glad to hear you’re healing. Sorry to hear about all your property getting damaged. It’s outrageous that they won’t also refund you for the years of storage. Maybe a no-win no-fee lawyer or blast them on social media until they reimburse you fully? If you share the name of the company maybe we can start an email campaign to get them to refund you properly.

      I’ll see what I can figure out, but I thank you for the suggestions. I don’t have any social media anymore, so I guess the lawyer would have to be it. But maybe I can get around the lawyer and figure out another way. I’ll see once they reply.

      Thank you love cuddle

        You could leave them a detailed negative review on trustpilot. I had an unsatisfactory experience with an optician once, left them a neg on trustpilot and the optician saw it and refunded me. Or we could all bombard them with emails. Hope you get it sorted one way or another. meow-hug

            Make sure it’s polite and factual but very detailed about all the things they did wrong (letting your stuff get damaged, refusing to refund for the years of storage and anything else you can think of.) No angry ranting. Include the total amount they owe you including the years of storage. Include dates for authenticity. Sound sensible and rational, no raging, just pure facts, they’re more likely to take you seriously.
