Ep94: The Medical vs Social Model of Disability. Part 2

Updated 10/2023. We talk about the medical and the social model of disability, and our thoughts on how it applies to endometriosis and chronic illness in general. These 2 models, which we explained about in episode 93, are just 2 ways of many to look at disability. CONNECT WITH US!
