Sometimes I get the impression we are a kind of disability no one else understands. Maybe that is because polio is a thing of the past, (praise God for that). I have been in a wheelchair all of my life, since age 12, but I've seen epeople who are REALLY handicapped in Iron Lungs and other respiratory problems. If we all stick together the ADA will apply to all. Any civil rights legislation should be followed closely by all it targets.....
