disability [Theme]

Pat and Greg have been through so much. Really strong people. If I were in their place, would I be able to love? Would you accept hardship? I would... couldn't. I'm sure Pat constantly has to step over herself and endure other people's mood swings. Silence when a loved one reaches for a bottle to ease the pain. The one she loved is gone. All that's left is an angry, wounded ghost. It is better to leave and pass for a creature than to suffer.

I began to pinch him in various places, lightly at first, then harder. Whenever he winced in pain, I rejoiced. So, he has his brains in place and I won't have to roll him in a wheelchair until the day he dies. Otherwise, no problem, I was ready to crush his head. I loved him enough.

She perceives her blindness as an annoying inconvenience. “Someone has heartburn, someone has diabetes, and someone does not see,” he repeats to her ...

He is beautiful. You don't need to see it to know it. It is enough to have palms, tongue and nose. He cares about her, but tries to make sure that she does not feel flawed.

Indeed, as a result of fundamental advances in bionics, in this century we will lay the technological foundation for the effective improvement of man and end disability.

People with disabilities do not exist. Only the possibilities of technology are limited.

Cities are still not designed for disabled people. Have you seen ramps in underground passages? She's a bitch at a 45 degree angle! ski resorts are not always so cool! I don’t understand: do you want people on the subway to descend or snatch medals from the Norwegians?

In whatever position you are, you must develop. We cannot walk, but we have not lost the ability to move forward.

This is something that does not treated. Doctors call this "phantom pain".

I don't want to be pitied. He often hands me the phone. He forgets.

Sometimes at night, I crawled all the way like a crab in the moonlight, to sit on your throne. My heart was filled with hatred. I was trying to force his useless legs to walk, to find you and tell you how much I need you!.. and I hate you...
