Just an fyi to anyone who watches this vid, we had to do a project that allowed us to relate to people with disabilities.

In all honestly it was only a 3 hour block, and I give credit to anyone who has to spend any real amount of time in a wheelchair.

This is not meant to offend anyone.

@daemonhunter79 totally agree. I am not ina wheelcahir, bt I tell off total strangers for that. And for when they treat people in wheelcahirs like idiots.

The stares...yes. Good point abt most people have good intentions when holding doors, but it rarely feels genuine.

What's with all the being pushed in this "project"?

[daemonhunter79]

this is to pantyfalsh comment if u have any kindness toward people in chairs DONT FUCKING CALL US CRIPPLE. sorry to get mad but that word is like calling a black person a nigger to a lot of us. we are not cripple, or handicapped, we are just physically challenged. my friends learned very fast not to call me a cripple when i was at a perfect height to punch them in the nuts. so just pls watch the language u call us by.

I commend you for taking a "Glimpse" into the world of a wheelchair bound person.

However there are some points to your project that don't work in the real world.

To get a real look into our world...You need to spend atleast 72hrs IN your chair with no one helping.

Transfering to your chair, bed & into a shower (bench), Cooking, Cleaning, Grocery shopping. Its ALL a lot of work without the use of your legs.

The simplest mundane tasks can become difficult in our world.

where did you get the wheelchair to do your project? and how mutch did you have to rent it?  should try the project on a public bus.

Like, wonderful tribute to folks whose spines are hosed. Not being a cripple, you were truly able to be the happiest girl in a wheelchair. Because of abject misery imposed by their condition, actual cripples (confined to wheelchairs) are harder pressed to attain as high of a happiness level. You go, girl!
