As some of you will know I have a rare bone condition that makes my bones very brittle called Osteogenesis Imperfecta. (Hence the logo of the business being a wheelchair.) when I made MBM, I wanted to supply my fellow people with a disability with stickers to represent their disabilities that weren’t boring and white/blue.
Having OI for a lot of us means it’s difficult to drive.
These were two of my very first orders back in the first few months of running the business in 2023. Within the last 6 months the owner of the white car got to finally put hers on her car, and today the dark car got to put her sticker on hers! FINALLY.
When these two made their orders, they were waiting for their vans to finally be ready. Having an accessible van is one of the hardest things when you’re in a wheelchair and I am so happy to say that both my customers / friends, have now both got their veichles FINALLY and I couldn’t be happier for them!
This is a happy post 100% but it serves as a reminder that transport for wheelchair users / especially by car, is ridiculously hard. Especially if that person wishes to be independent and drive themselves. It takes years of effort and hard work done by the person with a disability but also their team of specified occupational therapists and others involved to make this a reality.
Something that really needs to be more accessible, because people in wheelchairs deserve to be able to travel confidently independently and most importantly safely.
If you’re interested in having a sticker for your car, send us a DM! 💙💜🩷
