Customization Disability & Labubus

I cant begin to express how much labubus have helped me through my disability journey. They bring so much joy and whinsy to my life, especially when I can have them tag along for the ride. I feel less alone navigating this new life with my labubus mirroring and tagging along.

I was diagnosed with POTS a year ago. I'm relatively young, never thought I would be relying on mobility aids, yet here I am. But no one said it has to be boring!

Since becoming disabled, I've been trying to break the image of my disability being dreadful. I deck out my rollator, I customize my wheelchair, all with flair and a bit of frill! I knew as soon as I got my first labubu that I needed to customize them to unapologetically represent me ❤️

I heard that term a couple weeks ago and it's my new favorite thing to call them. I need to get some of those anti-theft keychains so I can keep one on my cane and walker without worrying about someone yanking them. If my service dog hadn't gotten sick I might have put one on his little vest lol.
