Cohousing-L Mailing List: Experiences with/as disabled people in cohousing

[Alan O'Hashi (adoecos]

allison.tom - the main reason i’m a strong advocate for cohousing is because of 
my six-month death bed disability experience. i was dragged along into silver 
sage village eight years ago not knowing what it was about, really, and then my 
eyes opened. i was homebound in a wheel chair/walker and rehabbed several 
months in community. i had a main caregiver and lots of supportive neighbors. 
i’m convinced that unless a person has gone through a period of short term to 
life long disability, it’s difficult to understand the topic. i would say most 
people get it intellectually and have some sensibility about it though. in 
fact, i made a movie about my experience
