Hi, I’m Zilla Q, wife to an amazing man and Momma Bear to two boys, one of whom experiences disabilities. I have the privilege to work with individuals and families that experience disabilities in my day job. It is because of that work, and the disabilities in my own family, that led me to start this blog. People have a lot of questions when it comes to disabilities but don’t know where to turn for the answers. Sometimes, there are even important questions people don’t know that they should be thinking about. My goal is to cover all that and more. This will be a journey we are on together.
