:waves: Hello! I am looking for Ate Ninang's
MIMI'S Filipino American restaurant that used
to be in Buena Park. In any case, Auntie Mimi,
missing you lots, and your good, good food!

much love respect affection,
Inday Sacia <3+*(.

Today I looked at a form and figured out certain things about myself.

1. Arthritis. Mobility impairment.

2. Cardiac. Physical impairment.

3. Chronic progressive debilitating disorder. Advanced connective tissue disease, Lupus eythematousus.

4. Epilepsy. Neurological impairment.

5. Legally blind. Visual impairment.

6. Mental/emotional impairment. Bipolar Disorder Major Depressive Disorder, Post Traumatic Stress Disorder.

7. Autism.

8. Person whose hearing loss is 70 dba or greater in the 1000 and 2000 Hz ranges. Hearing impairment.

Just one of these means that society stigmatizes you forever as an unwhole, damaged product: somebody lesser for having been and thus forever being disabled.

Since I turned 19, I figured: I will never feel sorry for myself again, because I am a good person with nothing wrong with me, and I am sincerely fabulous. So then. I had to admit, this is how I'm seen, based on American standards of caring about me from others. I am, as a Filipino American, then, PERMANENTLY DISABLED. I am seen, as a Californian, as such. I am seen, as an Angeleno, but primarily especially as a statistic, but in my struggle as a peer advocate consumer survivor. As. Permanently. Disabled! :rolls around in laugher: This was news to me!!!!!!!!

Having, with major faith, crawled out of a wheelchair. Having, being sent it seemed to die as a mental health patient when not processed as a rape survivor, becoming a medical professional as a licensed and certified Pharmacy Technician. Having, despite "teachers" who hate the youth, gained a Radio Technician license. Having, despite bronchitis, starvation, being beaten, the discipline to learn and grow from martial arts, and running and medalling in a marathon. Having a beautiful man friend who makes my life replete with wisdoms and smiles...THIS WAS NEWS TO ME!!!!!!!!<31+*(.

On Saturday, after Temple Preparation Gayla Scoll was kind enough to
buy me two vegetable egg rolls and a strawberry smoothie which saves
my life. She dropped me off by the curb on the corner of my street,
and I sat there for an hour next to the houses of my neighbors. Then I
lay for an hour in bed. Lupus can kill after less than two weeks when
diagnosed. On this my 13th year of lupus I am happy to be a walking
miracle despite onset of lung, heart, and kidney failure. I want to
share with you my favorite scriptures, and I want to also share with
you my love and gratitude for the Mormon Church Presidents Gordon B.
Hinckley and Thomas S. Monson gave me, now that I have been a convert
for fifteen years, finally enjoying my first Pioneer Day! Lamentations
3:57-8 Thou drawest near in the day that I called upon thee: thou
saidst, Fear not. O Lord, thou hast pleaded the causes of my soul;
thou hast redeemed my life. Doctrine and Covenants 89:11 Every herb in
the season thereof, and every fruit in the season thereof; all these
to be used with prudence and thanksgiving. Doctrine and Covenants 98:1
VERILY I say unto you my friends, fear not, let your hearts be
comforted; yea, rejoice evermore, and in everything give thanks; 2
Corinthians 8:14-5 But by equality, that now at this time your
abundance may be a supply for their want, that their abundance also
may be a supply for your want: that there may be equality. As it is
written, He that had gathered much had nothing left over; and he that
had gathered little had no lack. 1 Timothy 16-7 How be it for this
cause I obtained mercy, that in me first Jesus Christ might shew forth
all longsuffering for a pattern to them. Which should hearafter
believe on him to life everlasting. Now unto the King eternal,
immortal, invisible, the only wise God, be honor and glory forever and
ever. Amen. It has been such a strange year for me. Finally my dream
of volunteering at an animal shelter came true, with the most
wonderful people called Michelson Found Animals, with Adopt and Shop
in Culver City (also Lakewood) and the most fierce and sweet dogs and
kittens one could ever hope to cuddle. My job last year at Meowski
Hotel was not scant preparation, and now I'd get to do the same thing,
except not for money, with the same amount of gusto and affection and
joy with a sense of fulfillment and understanding of how far I've come
to survive like these scrappy loving creatures. My favorite book in
the Book of Mormon is Alma, and Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit to
me, like the Mormon church, is like a hen gathering her chicks. I used
to keep three cockatiels, Puff, Screech, and Marble. Puff laid 24 eggs
in ten years, when I used to live in Palos Verdes. I prayed about it,
and I'm not going to church anymore because I've got to settle my
affairs before I go. As a member, I visited various houses of worship,
knowing my testimony as a Mormon witness would show the world through
commiseration with others what we believe. I am so grateful to have
received my first Book of Mormon from Reno temple. I am so grateful to
have done baptisms for the dead in Redlands Temple, San Diego Temple,
Los Angeles Temple, and to have celebrated the Newport Temple at
dedication, and with our celebration in Anaheim. Southern hospitality
in Temecula stake, in Anaheim stake, in Crestridge stake, in Long
Beach stake, in Santa Monica stake, in Huntington Park stake, and
finally here in Los Angeles stake, means that I know that God sent me
to America as a little girl to become a Mormon woman who is before you
today happy. Thank you for being my family. God bless you and all your
"little ones" as your only "troubles." With sincere affection,
Katrina. Alma 32:31a Busa, kon ang unsa ka binhi motubo kini maayo

here then, if then this one seed grows very much

I have lupus. I'm pretty sure pollution such as psychiatric meds gave me lupus, too.

People die after a lupus diagnosis 2 days or 2 weeks later.

I was diagnosed with lupus in 2007 and the year is 2019, so I'm feeling pretty good.

"You leave home, you move on, you do the best you can."

How y'all feelin' tonite?!!

Can somebody please tell Josh I'm sorry I defriended him. Basically, I took 350 people out who never commented back. No offense, Josh! Hope you are alright!

FB not working for me very well at all today. A sign of the times?

Dear J.N.D,

That's you, dude. Dear Jerico Naranja (which means orange in Spanish) Dimataga,

Babycakes, I was told in Febuary that you were too busy in school, for forever!, to talk to me on the phone.

And then, Boyd Drazen Dimataga Pacres told me you were spending Easter in Cebu City and Mactan Island.

Dong, maayo unta na maayo lang ka!

Young boy one, may it be well that you are only well!

Basically Mr. E/R was kind of taking to me the wrong side, and then I hadn't seen you since January New Year's day, but God bless, God bless you!

In case my families are reading this, I have really spent my life overcoming I. and A. etc. dividing me from you, and I'm glad I know this now.

I know that people die from lupus after 3 weeks, I have been so blessed to be on my 12th year.

But my echocardiogram in 2012 (thanks Eva and Luis et all) told me that psychiatric medications were giving me heart failure, and that it was immanent, I'm really sorry I was a bulimic anorexic in high school, and I had anorexia nervosa in my twenties and I hate all the ways the system fails but I care, so yes heart failure and lupus, and me with psychiatric medications still and for both I'm really feeling (pain) it (yuck) now, so just in case, I have never heard voices, I have never hurt anyone including myself, I have only ever had love, I am not insane, I am a surviving rape victim, and I loved all the ways that we could touch online, and I love you, and I wish you all the best. Just for today.

To life.
