Sometimes I am sensitive because of who I am, because that's who I was meant to be, and not because I have cerebral palsy. And I don't think, I can double check this but I am not sure that being sensitive is a crime. I guess it depends on the definition of "same." Treat me as a respectful, educated individual that has insights others might not? Sure. But treating me as if cerebral palsy isn't there? As if I am an average person with average experiences? I'm not sure I want that because that's not who I am. I don't like people asking why I'm sitting down at work, and I'm not sure why, I just don't like it, and that might well be just a preference, not CP related. Life is tricky. Sometimes I don't feel better when I hear people say "It could be worse." Life is not straight forward like that.
