Disabled does not mean

That I’m stupid, invisible, that my carer talks for me.
it just means I find it hard to get around, with out help. But sometimes don’t want to discuss what is wrong with me to complete strangers, that judge.

That I cant do physical either in or outside the house by myself as I need help. It does not mean I am not educated, can speak for myself, can get married and have children. Yes I have children and have brought them up!0

I love these posts! Well done everyone. Yes, "disabled does not mean" is one of the most powerful threads I have seen so far
