Chronic, not Contagious

My name is Marie Dagenais-Lewis, and Chronic Not Contagious is my personal vlog. I am a very Pridefully Disabled Art Activist, entrepreneur, speaker and journalist. I created Chronic, not Contagious to be a source of empowerment while humanizing my rare diseases and disabilities. 

I have an one of a kind life that no one has ever had before that gives me a unique perspective, which is why I am focused on changing the ableist society that plagues the world. There are so many facets to my mission as ableism has deep roots due to the fact it has always been the societal norm all throughout civilization. These stigmas aren’t new—what’s new is the Inclusion Revolution I am trying to spark and be a part of to make the world and future accessible and inclusive.
