Great share about the 'help' thing. I have watched my own mind, not-know-what-the-right-thing-to-do is. And as a culture, since we are so rubbish at asking for help, can we always assume that disabled people will ask? Is it something you (unfortunately) have to get good at in a way able-bodied people don't?

Nowadays I go for 'friendly face' - to try and convey 'I'm the type of person you could ask if needed' but don't say anything directly...

It took a long time for business to understand the nature of the employee. Most businesses don’t look at employees the way Scrooge did now. I have to believe that business will come to see disabled people in the same light, adding their value to whole, sometimes in ways others cannot. It will happen. It must happen.

Hi, interesting article, however the accessibility of the post itself is not very good. The font made it very difficult to read. I don't know if this is something you can change, but could you please look into dyslexia friendly fonts.
