  INDEPENDENT LIVING FOR THE SICK OR DISABLED 

Perhaps unlike you, I have a handicap. A physical or mental impairment, chronic illness or pain compromises operation of an integral part of me: my senses, my body, or my mind. This makes my fully functioning and achieving unusually difficult, if not totally impossible. Even at those times when I seemingly overcome this condition, I am still conscious that it exists. I’m aware that people and / or technological “crutches” often help me. I’d like to depend on these less, and more often function independently of them. I have learned lots about my special needs and overcome obstacles once thought insurmountable. Perhaps like you, I value self determination, self respect and equal opportunity.
