Happy Chanukah to those celebrating in tough times both as Jews and Disabled people and know you aren't alone. My mate is still dealing with what he's dealing with as He's Jewish, even too scared to put his menorah in the windowsill, so he lights it on his table.

Chag Sameach V'Am Yisrael Chai 🕎🇮🇱✡
