I've never tried to define disability for myself. It's one of those things that about its existence. You see individuals that have challenges. But on a day to day basis. you don't really think about it as part of your life, until it becomes part of your reality. I like to put ability instead of disability. I like to say ok, I'm disable, but with lots of abilities. all disabilities, people with disabilities have challenges because they either have a physical or a mental function, which isn't working just the way everybody else's work. Do you know what a disability is? My impression of a disability is someone who may just need a bit more time or assistance. In my view, a disability is an artificially created circumstance. I'm totally blind,and yet for most of the time, I'm not disabled. For example, when I'm sitting in a restaurant and somebody hands me a print menu which is usually what I get, I instantly become disable. some restaurants now carry a braille menu, I'm no longer disable. It's easy for me to go to school, to run up the stairs, to go down the hallway, to buy coffee, all those little things. And for someone with a disability, it's so much more than that. A disability is only a detour to where you want to get to. It doesn't necessarily mean somebody in a wheelchair, it could be intellectual, it could be vision, it could be hearing. invisible, or visible, sensory, mobility, intellectual or mental health. That would be my definition of disability. We're not talking about disabilities. We're talking about people with disabilities. So it's the person we're talking about. I actually have never stopped myself since my disability of not going to if a store, you know woman's clothing, or a restaurant, just because they have a step, because I feel that I want them to see me how I had to get in there, because I obviously had to get help to just bump me up that one step.
