Relationships are give and take. Disability doesn't make someone a less-equal partner in a relationship.

So much so, some days I get fooled into believing it. Sometimes feel guilty that I can't do more physically for my wife and daughter.<br /><br />When I confess this feeling to my wife, she says to me "You do more in the house than any able-bodied boyfriend I ever had. Besides, you do other things that many men can't, or won't do."<br /><br />As we struggle for equality in this "physically obsessed" and superficial society, disability exists much more in the eye and mind of the beholder, than it does in our bodies.Frank_Vhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15707525224938640688noreply@blogger.com
