Category: Disability & Rare Disease

A beach lies in deep shadow, with distant houses silhouetted against the beginnings of a sunrise. A patch of orange and gold in the middle of the horizon heralds the rising sun. The dim blue sky above is full of gauzy clouds, with some denser, darker clouds low on the horizon to the right. Dark waves break on the shore to the right, their crests glowing in the dawn.

A Question of Identity

December 9, 2018June 2, 2022 Megan Bean
