Thank you for this post. “Differently Abled” is a term I’ve heard in use recently. Disabled is fine. We are define by how ”abled” we are, not by how disabled we may be or appear to be. And believe me, many of us have disabilities which are unknown and unseen. Hugs to you!

Taking care of "Special Needs" is not putting people down.  It's the way to help  lifting them up!

Yes, Thank you for sharing this. I have never thought of people with a disability as having "special Needs" although in reality they probably do,but it does set some people apart. Disability is a word that can refere to anyone...like me for example. I have a parking ticket so I can park close to stores etc for I now have trouble walking distances; which has to be classed as a disability.
