Trigger warning: ableism, suicide

So here’s a story about alternative medicine. It’s not really about homeopathy specifically despite what I said on Twitter but who cares.

Quite a few years ago now, before I had my first instance of spinal reconstructive surgery, I’d been told the surgery wasn’t possible for me. For reasons this turned out to be not right, but at this point I was under the impression I was stuck with a spine that was getting worse, growing increasingly more painful etc. Fairly obviously, with spinal curvature, it also gave me tension headaches.
