Some disabled people are fine for days at a time and then suffer.


Translation:

When being observed or assessed they 'suffer', but the rest of the
time they are fine.


Before my first heart op, I could barely walk 60 metres
Before my second, I could barely walk 5 metres.
Before my third, I was back down to 60 meters.

Now, as long as I take the pills and dont drink too much coffee I can
walk indefinitely. On good days. Sometiems I am pushed to do 60 meters
without stopping.

Disability does indeed vary greatly day to day.

Oh, and I havent got a blue card nor do I intend to get one.

I need the exercise.


the sort of crass foolishness that Andrew demonstrates with that comment has spread throughout our society, resulting in a whole lot of stupid decisions that are good for no-one. Unfortunately such stupidity became positively fashionable in the 1960s and has yet to fall out of favour.
