Janice Palmer holds a highly visible position; she is responsible for
Public Relations at the Neag School at the University of Connecticut.
We met Janice last year when she helped us to book a shoot for Able Lives,
and she did a fabulous job. It was surprising when she came forward to talk to us about her disability,
fibromialgia, which is invisible to those around her. Her story in Able Lives: Incorporated Episode 3 reveals
some of the challenges inherent in a "hidden disabilty."
