To those of you who see the extent of my disability and hold the door open or help me put my walker back in the trunk of my car I thank you. You're right! It's not an easy road I walk.Others have their difficulties and I wouldn't trade with anyone! But over the years I've observed some selfish behavior with regards to handicapped parking. People who DON'T have a plaquard and just "want to run in real fast." Thinking well, no one is using it." It's is also not justified that you have a brand new car (no plaquard) and don't want anyone to ding it up. Nor is it justified because you have "Mom of 4 kids!" On your license plate. Today a woman zoomed past me we were both aiming for the single handicapped space at the car repair place. Not wanting to crash I backed off but as I drove by her I admit I gave her all kinds of dirty looks. I could see she had no plaquard. After we both parked and she could see my disability she quickly affirmed that she had a disability plaquard too but her husband always took it down. But she was determined to get that spot! All I'm asking is everyone please have a little consideration. Those handicapped placquards are earned! It's not just a conve
nience-it's a medical necessity!
