Holy shit! Poor Sufjan, that's so scary. I'm glad he's so sanguine about his recovery.

Suddenly becoming physically disabled is such a weird, fucked up thing to experience so it’s great to see he sounds like he’s in a really good place with it. I wish him the best with the recovery!!

How scary. I'm glad he was able to get answers instead of just cycling through tons of doctors with no clear ideas, as happens to many people.

Reminder that the disability community is the biggest minority in the world, and the only one anyone can 'join' at any time. And yet they're ignored and underrepresented all the time. 😒

Wishing him the best with recovery and physical therapy!
