That means that it’s time for everyone to realise that
long-term disabled people, whether it’s physical or mental disabled, aren’t people
who are claiming because we are pulling a fast move, we are claiming because we
have no choice.
I liked having various skills, which meant I could get
various jobs and I did like having challenging jobs, which was reflected in my
pay.
Now I have no choice but to get other people to cook,
clean and collect my mail, as I cannot do this.
The skills I once had, are long gone. My speech
therapy classes are over, so I visit various sites on social media, buy certain
books and practice speaking wherever I can.
This is what comes with having Multiple Sclerosis, a
disability that destroys the nerve cells in the brain and the rest of the body,
which is why we end up in a wheelchair.
As have been shown on certain shows, too many of us are seen as easy targets and will end up victims of theft, even in our own homes.
I assure everyone, I’m not shopping in exclusive shops
or living the high-life anymore. I accept this is the way it is for me.
So please, realise these issues, explain why we make
our claims to the state.
Light and Peace
Andria.
