When i was on my way to work, i saw a man who lost his both hands. I looked at him and asked myself. What if i'm going to be like him? I would rather commit suicide. What would i feel? I feel so hard and pity for him. How i wish nobody would suffer that kind of thing.
Why this should happen? I mean.. there's poverty problem and then disability?
do you know someone who are disabled? have you ever helped someone?
I really want to help them.

hi tess yes I am partly disa bled myself with an artificial shoulder joint and my left leg is in a heavy brace. we learn to accept our problems and look at others with much worse problems and we are grateful so I cannot walk miles but I can make graphics, I can help others, I can socialize, I can mylot here,we accept some limitations but we go on to live full lives.Accidents happen and mine was running in place and I ruptured the tendon in my left foot.I had a quack for a doctor who misdiagnosed it as a sprained ankle . by the time I got to a foot specialist he told me it was a ruptured tendon and could not be repaired. In order to keep from walking on the side of my foot I would have to have a brace on my shoe so I could walk again. S I walk but not far at one time but I am much better off than many who reside here.I am for now living in a retirement center so many here have all sorts of disabilities here.The thing is to pick yourself up, dust yourself off and try all over again.You do not give up as you are alive and can do many things to help yourself, and you can be happy in spite of some disabilities.

Well it's sad that you have witness something terrible. Yet, as we said life must go on though you are limited to do something if you're disabled. Just think positive and be open minded because even people who has all parts of their body still can't do all things.
