I'm a "hemiplegic" partially paralyzed due to a closed head injury (stroke twenty (20 years now, it should have killed me I wish it would have instead it rattled my brain and left me useless as a human being.
it's the equivalent of going head first through a wind shield in a head on collision or falling off the back of a motorcycle without a helmet i have a college education and an IQ over160 but only have the use of my right hand and I walk with a noticeable limp, if I'd been an animal struck by a car someone would have shot me to put me out of my misery I'm only seeking that same compassion you'd show that animal.
Blessed Be,

I have to walk with a cane. The use of my right leg is almost complety gone. My right foot is paralyzed and i have no sensation in it. The two most likely causes are ms or parkinsons. When i had surgery on my leg, the dr. discovered that the nerves in my leg were starting to die. I live in chronic pain and have to eat painkillers like candy just to be able to function. The people i work with have nicknamed me "house".

What is the Legal Definition of a Disability?
Say the word “disability,” and people often think of the most obvious types of disabilities – mobility impairments that require a person to use a wheelchair to move around, or perhaps visual or hearing impairments. But disabilities may be physical or cognitive, may be readily observed or “hidden” (such as epilepsy, arthritis, and diabetes), and may result from a variety of causes.
The definition of disability set forth in the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 (ADA) does not distinguish between type, severity, or duration of the disability. It states:
“The term ‘disability’ means, with respect to an individual –
(a) a physical or mental impairment that substantially limits one or more of the major life activities of such individual;
(b) a record of such impairment; or
(c) being regarded as having such an impairment.” (P.L. 101-336, Sec. )
The ADA definition is an inclusive definition that tends to capture both the largest and broadest estimate of people with disabilities. It describes a disability as a condition which limits a person’s ability to function in major life activities – including communication, walking, and self-care (such as feeding and dressing oneself) – and which is likely to continue indefinitely, resulting in the need for supportive services.
The United States Census Bureau also uses a broad definition of disability. Starting with the ADA definitions, the Census Bureau then expands its definition to identify people 16 years old and over as having disability if they meet any of the following criteria:
•used a wheelchair or were a long-term user of a cane, crutches, or a walker;
•had difficulty performing one or more functional activities, including seeing, hearing, speaking, lifting/carrying, using stairs, or walking;
•had difficulty with one or more activities of daily living (ADLs), including getting around inside the home, getting in or out of bed or a chair, bathing, dressing, eating, and toileting;
•had difficulty with one or more instrumental activities of daily living (IADLs), including going outside the home, keeping track of money and bills, preparing meals, doing light housework, taking prescription medication in the right amount at the right time, and using the telephone;
•had one or more specified conditions, including a learning disability, mental retardation or another developmental disability, Alzheimer’s disease, or some other type of mental or emotional condition;
•were limited in their ability to do housework;
•were 16 to 67 years old and limited in their ability to work at a job or business; and were receiving federal benefits based on an inability to do work.
Even the Census Bureau’s definition is limited by including only civilian, non-institutionalized persons 16 years old and over – excluding children, military personnel and people who have been institutionalized – and by excluding many “hidden” disabilities, such as epilepsy, arthritis, and diabetes.
The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) utilizes yet another definition of “disability” in determining eligibility for certain targeted housing programs. Vouchers made available through such programs must be used by people with disabilities in households that qualify as “disabled households” according to HUD regulations. HUD has specific definitions for a person with a disability and for a disabled household:
?A person with a disability is defined as an individual who:
•has a disability as defined in Section 223 of the Social Security Act; OR
•is determined to have a physical, mental, or emotional impairment which is:
¦expected to be of long, continued and indefinite duration; AND
¦substantially impedes his or her ability to live independently; AND
¦is of such a nature that such ability could be improved by more suitable housing conditions; OR
•has a developmental disability as defined in Section 102 of the Developmental Disabilities Assistance and Bill of Rights Act.
This definition includes persons who have the disease of acquired immunodeficiency syndrome. Likewise, for the purposes of qualifying for targeted housing assistance, this definition excludes a person whose disability is based solely on any drug or alcohol dependence.
?A disabled household is defined as a family whose head, spouse, or sole member is an adult with a disability. Disabled households can be:
•a single individual with a disability living alone;
•a related family in which the head of household or spouse is a disabled person;
•two or more related adults with disabilities living together;
•two or more unrelated adults with disabilities living together; or
•one or more unrelated adults with disabilities living with one or more live-in aides.
Generally, disabilities fall into the following types:
Mobility Impairment
Mobility impairment refers to the inability of a person to use one or more of his/her extremities, or a lack of strength to walk, grasp, or lift objects. The use of a wheelchair, crutches, or a walker may be utilized to aid in mobility.
Cognitive Impairment
A cognitive impairment affects a person’s ability to reason, understand, and learn. Cognitive disabilities are separated into two categories: learning disabilities and mental retardation.

Hearing Impairment
Hearing impairments range from a mild hearing loss to total deafness. Those who are hard of hearing often use their residual hearing and lip read when communicating face-to-face. People who are deaf may use American Sign Language or lip-read, and may speak for themselves or use a sign-language interpreter.
Visual Impairment
A visual impairment affects a person’s ability to see, and includes: (1) inability to see images clearly and distinctly; (2) loss of visual field; (3) inability to detect small changes in brightness; (4) color blindness; and (5) sensitivity to light. A cane or sight dog may be used to assist with mobility, and/or Braille may be used to read.
Speech Impairment
Speech impairments range from problems with articulation or voice strength to complete voicelessness. People with speech impairments may have difficulty in projection, articulation and fluency. Some people with speech impairments may use assistive devices or an interpreter to communicate.
******************************** so before someone says that because i can walk or shop for food or drive a car they need to shut their mouths and live a day in my life************* normal day for me is getting up at 4 a.m just so i can get my body adjusted to being mobile, due to ms i have hard time getting up i have the cursed ms hug which feels like a vice grip around my ribs, then i have to let my body get accustomed to sitting up if not i fall. then i am up to start my kids lunch for school, and their breakfast normally peopel it may take 20 mins or more but for me it takes 2 or more hrs, then once they are on way to school i start my weekly cleaning, im unfourtantly not able to get this done in one day it takes a week, then i have to take break, take medications, then im back to start on more of house hold chores ( if im lucky i might have a family member help me if they are off work) then its time to start thinking about fixing the kids supper again most opeople it may take 30 mins to cook but for me it can take up to hr to hr and half......... Then its help them with homework, then get them outside for a few hrs of fresh air, then showr's and off to bed( god help if i have cognitive problems due to the ms, if that be the case then things really hit the fan , and i have to make notes) so before you tell someone they are not disabled because they dont have to have someone come in and take care of them youn need to check your head at the door!!!!!!! just because i chose to do things on my own i think it helps me keep going, and to have a**holes tell me im not disabled f_you!!!!!!! sorry everyone else it just pisses me off for self centered a**holes to say that shit!!!!!!!!

Wow, now if just me being blind will turn away people, I might as well give the whole shibang. I'm blind, have a hearing impairment due to having too many ear infections when I was a kid, epilepsy, and I have some depression to. I really feel like I have too much for someone to deal with sometimes, but I know that if there is the right person out there, he'll find me and we will start the loving relationship that I've always have wanted. I'm tired of either being turned away from at least being blind, or from something else. So that's my little story. I really try to act positive, but it's hard when you live in a small town without having many friends and all, but I do have fun talking with people and I find it easier to make friends with other people who have disabilities than don't. I guess it's because we already understand each other. So I'm really glad I found this group. So I hope to make friends, and I'll talk to everyone soon. Have a wonderful rest of your day.

and that is all i am saying on the subject.

Boy there sure are a lot of us out here. Mine is not like most seem to be here. In my case I was a trucker who rolled my truck over and lost my left leg, got bangded up, and walked "I use the term loosly" away. I thank each day that I am living now and getting to watch my daughter get married and "walked her down the isle". I get to play with my grandkids. I am going to college to start a new carrer, every day is a new start and I am still kicking even though its only with one foot.

 Its hard when you still want to work but your pain and body says no, i fight with this daily and my dr's have told me it is actually better i didnt work because of the fact i would more then likely cause more damage to myself or the company would lose money due to me ( have a tendency to drop things, then i also have a tendency when my left leg goes out as i call it when i start to take a step it is there but it feels dead or is so weak i fall) lost of employers wont hire someone that has this problem due to the worker comp cost! its also hard to find a job that will allow someone to only work x amount of hrs a day( me i have to stop and lay down at times or i cant function, the mental fog is also another draw back, i can be in the middle of something and totally forget what it was i was doing) its frustrating believe me! like right now i am having tremors and i keep making mistakes have to backspace to fix it just to right this paragraph its painstaking and very frustrating
all i can do is be me , be the best parent , best friend and siter to those i love and care for , and keep the faith!! lost my train of thought so im ending this and going back to bed for now all i can do when i know im in a ms relapse , no good fighting it , just let it roll!! i hope you all have a blessed week , and my prayers go out to all!!

I have heart problems, blood pressures a little high, sugars a little high. I take meds for all that and I'm in the process or trying to get my disability. Most of the women I have met don't seem to have a problem with all this. If they did, I probably wouldn't want to date them anyway. My problems aren't so severe that I can't, well, you know, take care of business.

 hey deadly my son has adhd and ocd, but he has taught himself to control it at the age of 14 he no longer takes his meds , his grades are amazing and he is finding other areas to burn off the extra energy and when he feels the ocd trying to take over he distracts himself.. i think its wonderful... he is even teaching old mom to distract herself when she has a ms relapse... its tough but now i know sorta kinda what he struggled with .. good luck to you!!

I have MYASTHENIA GRAVIS and of course I have the one and only form that kills. This condition has taken away all of my singing voice and about 70% of my speaking voice. My eyesight is good/bad good/bad because each eye can see slightly different perspectives of what I am looking at. Medications that I take can cause terrible side effects. And to make my medications work correctly for me, I must exercise daily on my Total Gym or Bowflex and miscellaneous other equipment.

im have ADHD
Crap, I hate it when you are told ADHD is a disability. I have it too. But in the 50's we just got slapped up side our heads for being bouncy and noisy when we were suppose to be quiet.
My grandson has it too. My daughter doesn't take away his video games she makes him sit still for 5 mins. WoW what a punishment that is for him. Drink coffee it works like the meds do and flushes out of your system so you are not a zombie.
Most of us are above average IQ, can do 5-9 things at one time. So take advantage of your skills kid. Use it to learn and grow.

WOW Its such a great feeling that you are not alone
when it comes to having problems, to me I think of the problems
as a mountain and just have to climb them everyday. I know its rough
but in the end and at the end of the day, we go to sleep and get to
wake up the next morning and do it all over again. Except somedays
we have more than one mountain to climb.
I have depression, hearing loss and OCD good days and not so good days.
My son however is Schizo/affective bi-polar, OCD, ADHD, PTSD
he is also Deaf and visual problems.
So like I said good days and not so good days.
