Cosplability: Differently equal
“It was my first Captain Sparrow cosplay that made me realise that no one has the right to decide for me, least of all disease. In my own way, by going down an unexpected path, by doing something completely different, I can.
I CAN DO.
I CAN BE.
I CAN DREAM.
I CAN HAVE FUN.”
Can art and passion improve quality of life? This is demonstrated by the biography of Alex L. Mainardi, who suffers from Friedreich's 20 years of cosplay and writing beyond stereotypes and discrimination.
