The word normal should be banned, I call all disabled people, special people
because to me they are, they face things every day that these so called normal people would never be able to face, in fact they would expire at the prospect.


All my life I hated the word 'special' as I don't want be named as special. Maybe its just me with the word 'special'.


No matter how much you bluster my friend Karl you are an amazing man who has achieved more than most people ever dream of, I dont like the words special needs, but to say someone is special is not an insult more a statement of respect.I do respect you and all the disabled people on this site I wish I could say I had achieved half of what most of you have. I salute you all, you are amazing people. :)

If you look at the way people are, is there anyone who is ‘normal?’ We have this old-school definition of what normal is, well ‘normal’ mommy has to take Xanax because she is struggling with anxiety and normal daddy has been on anti-depressants for 5 years because of his job. I am physically incapable of doing what many others are, does that make me ‘abnormal?’ I refuse to accept that.
