As a person who is in a wheelchair; just because I can stand does not mean I'm faking it

BeccaBear People are more judgmental when you are young. Like say you take the public bus but you can't stand for long due to an accident, then people give you the stare for not give up your seat some some lady. Just because we are young doesn't mean we don't have a a major injury or a disability

so happy you picked a girl who can walk but needs a wheelchair. most ppl don't realize that some wheelchair users can walk (even if only for like 100 steps per day) so they save their standing/walking for things like toilets or showering or moving around the house.

Stephanie Thomas So true! I really struggle to find trousers and jeans which fit me well. They can be too big around the waist, too long from crotch seam to waist (thus the material folds down on itself), or too short in length (showing ankle and looking bizarre on me with high heels). I feel like I need tops in petite or regular length and trousers in tall but even that idea doesn't always work.

Kaitlyn Defrench - Girl, it matters more to you than it does to them. If they are out with you, they're thinking about YOU, not your disability. I knew I would marry my husband when he got into an argument with a medical supplier because he didn't feel like the cane I got was pretty enough for me. Then, he shelled out money from his own pocket because he said I deserved a mother-of-pearl cane head that was "as moonlit as (my) skin." (Edit to add that I was 19 and he was 30 when we married, so don't just think it's only older guys that have open minds.)

Can't believe all the ignorant fools here. Not everybody that uses a wheelchair is completely unable to walk or stand. I have issues where if I walk or stand for too long I will completely run out of stamina and my legs will start colapsing from under me. I only use my chair if I'm going far from my home.

Zipstone depends on her condition. I have eds and no I don't have a wheelchair but my doctors and my pt wants me to get one as I'm getting weaker and my joints subluxe and dislocate even easier now and way more often. I know a lot of people with eds that use chairs and scooters and some of us can stand and walk for short amounts of time and then some can do it for a very long time depending on the severity and sometimes some of us are even confined full time in a chair or bed.

Thank you for bringing awareness to the fact that even though we may need a wheelchair, we can be capable of standing for short periods or walking a few steps. I know it confuses onlookers, but there are many different conditions and reasons for needing one. It doesn't mean we are faking it! Believe me, if we could get away with not using one we would do so in an instant, the difficulties are real lol.
