I have a friend in a wheelchair and the only thing I find is that a lot of places aren't equipped to accommodate a wheelchair. I see more and more places are considering this when building these days. Maybe some day everyone will realize that they are just people too.

I have many friends with wheel chairs. They are just like everyone else. They have their good points and bad points, strengths and weaknesses. Of course they have limits, just as everyone has limits.
I can't make a basket with a basket ball for anything. That's a limit. There are many people in wheel chairs who can do it. I can't reach the top shelf in my favorite health food store because I'm only 5'2", neither can folks in wheel chairs. It's a limit. We deal with it by asking someone taller to help and take down what we need.
It's not a question of having limitations, but of doing everything as best as we can. There is always a way to accomplish want we want to do. Anything is possible. I have many disabilities, most are hidden. Physically I'm much weaker than I was when I was younger. It sucks, but I won't let it stop me from having the life I want. I also have strengths. I'm smarter than most people. I hope my brain always stays sharp.
