Tagtracheostomy

A picture of me, an Asian American disabled woman in a wheelchair, a tracheostomy is in my throat connected to a ventilator tube. I am in the emergency room at UCSF Moffitt/Long hospital. I am swaddled in blankets, my eyes are closed, and I am trying to sleep as I am waiting for test results and a bed in the intensive care unit. Behind me is a computer monitor with a bright glow. On a table in front of me is a wheelchair battery charger.
