I have gone from a cane to a rollator etc etc. I have a disabled parking permit, the works. I am 23. Every time, and every time I mean every single damn time, I park in the spot, I will have older people question me "are you really disabled?", "you're too young, this isn't for you", and one woman even took my cane from my hand which then left me in bed for a week.

I just needed to vent here because it's getting to the point where going out to support myself seems completely pointless as every time I do I manage to come home in tears.

Young people get sick. Young people go on chemo. Young people become disabled.
