Umm.. yep, people stare and assume that because my legs don't work properly, that I must be also deaf and blind. I wish I was normal often.

Thanks but I don't need your help and support. What do you think you can give me in way of help and support? I'm guessing you have no experience of what it's like to have a disability of any kind, let alone mine.

Of course they're different to everyone else. If they weren't, they wouldn't be disabled.

And I think it's rather condescending to assume they need your help and support.



i agree...
