I'd be a hypocrite If I said I would dimiss the idea completely seeing as I do have a disability. For me it would have more to do with chemistry and the person's attitude. Some people can be a bit self absorbed, bitter (angry at the world because they have a disability) and full of self pity. I know that sounds harsh of me to say that but its true. I would have no time for someone like that whether they had a disability or not. If their disability is rudeness or ignorance then I think I'd pass. The thing is a lot of people have a disability in some way whether it be dyslexia or poor eyesight or something more serious.

I think its hard to know how you would react unless you are faced with that situation. Some people can't handle it and some don't see it as a problem.

The other thing that I wanted to point out is that it could happen to anyone, whether it be from a car accident or be struck down with a disease or illness (God forbid). Its a morbid thought but its true. I wouldn't like to think I would judge someone on the basis of that.


I don't want to sound flippant but it's all relevant to situations - I have 2 small kids and my partner has 2 stroppy teens and an older child. Plus the ex'es and the families. And we live opposite sides of Ireland, trying to look for an eventual "family home".
Compared to what seems to be facing us some days - a wheelchair? That's easy.

There was a regular poster on here in a wheelchair. I met her at one of the meets and she was funny, witty, intelligent and gorgeous. Run off the site unfortunately because of a troll. Can't remember her handle ?

Hard to know what I would do Uno but I would never rule anything out.

cheers
