At the store, I accidentally bumped a man’s foot with the wheel of my wheelchair: he started yelling at me and insulting me until the police arrived… 😨😢
I haven’t been able to walk for several years now. I used to think that losing the ability to move independently would be the end of my normal life. Yes, it’s hard—it hurts physically and mentally. But I’ve learned to cope. I accepted my condition and decided: I will keep living as much as possible, without locking myself away between four walls.
Thank God, we live in a world where people with disabilities are respected, helped, and where conditions are created for a normal life… But unfortunately, that’s not always the case everywhere. Sometimes you meet people for whom you’re just an excuse to vent their anger.
Recently, something happened to me that I still clearly remember.
