Who we are
We are the Kojas! Celebrating my 30th Birthday. We have been wanting to go to wdw for years but have never been. It will be extra challenging now, as 2 years ago I developed Lupus (and fibromyalgia). This is a very serious autoimmune disease that attacks your connective tissues and organs. It can be triggered by UV light (the sun, indoor lighting, etc) among other things. We are also on the autism spectrum, so breaks are going to be essential.
The Plan
9/15 - 9/21 staying at Caribbean Beach.
Going to one park per day, with one day at Universal. Touring the parks early and late (taking advantage of the EMH that are available everyday due to SWGE opening), with a midday break.
I am in a wheelchair at least part time (I have my own), I also plan on asking for DAS for both my lupus and autism.
