LOVE YAlit Author Ava Jae’s Post: On The Lack of Chronic Illness Rep In YA
I LOVE this post by #YAlit author Ava Jae On The Lack of Chronic Illness Rep In YA, and I’m honored that she included Parallel Visions in her list. We need to change the message that’s out there in YA lit for chronically ill teens: that their stories are only worth telling if they die or have a miracle cure. Chronically ill kids and teens can be heroes in their own right. I wrote Parallel Visions after getting asthma. It’s terrifying to feel like you can’t breathe. But chronic disease has nothing to do with us being strong, intelligent, empathic beings who can be heroes and have adventures, too.
Read her fantastic post, book suggestions, and reader comments on more book suggestions.

Oj, jag glömde skriva nÃ¥got i förra kommentar :-0 jag skulle vara en värdig vinnare av lite nya underkläder för att jag Behöver Det. Min dotter kom för 9 mÃ¥nader och jag har fortfarande vänta-barn BHn pÃ¥ mig varje dag och de obligatorisk granny-pantiesen (skäääms)…

I typically support real free trade agreements that get rid of tariffs and barriers.But this one appears to be nothing more than a massive effort at censorship.

It’s a pleasure to find such rationality in an answer. Welcome to the debate.
