Mobility Aids Aren't Just for the Elderly

When you live with invisible disabilities, sometimes you need to use mobility aids. When you're younger, this tends to draw attention to you and not always good attention. In this episode, I talk about how invisible disability doesn't care how old you, it strikes hard and sometimes that means you need to use tools to help you survive.
