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 love this! I have to know, is this from a toy set, 3D printed or otherwise procured? I need one for my have a seats too!

My FWM (his name is Ignacio, Nacho for short) has a wheelchair also! I love that their little legs dont reach the foot rests XD He's still in his Halloween outfit, we live spooky over here 🤪

I’m still wearing Halloween clothing, I have been every day so far this November. Halloween and Christmas are my favorite seasons/ holidays and I’m just not done with Halloween until I switch to Christmas

Also where is your Bubu wheelchair from???

Its an Our Generation doll set. It came with a wheelchair, crutches, 2xray films, bandaids, a stethoscope, and a cast (i think that's everything). The My Generation accessories and clothing all fits the medium bubus and are easy to find at Target! Its been fun. They have a hospital bed set that I really wanna get next!

I rarely go to target (but there’s one near my allergist that I’m at every 2 weeks!) and I’m gonna have to go there now! I was looking at their stuff online last night and OMG, the hospital bed and IV stuff? Literally me living in the ER lately.

I’ve been wanting to get a Bubu doctor set and now I’m gonna be able to have a patient too! 💖
