The hostility is incredible. Don't get me wrong, I have encountered many kind souls in regards to my illness/disabilities. My professor for my social work class, for example, is wonderful. Makes sure I am able to access close seating to the door, etc. It is just the random masses that don't understand and use that against me in some vain attempt to gain something from it.

It is amazing, really, that disabled and sick people are cherished in the media. Used as "inspiration porn", but in reality, people couldn't give less of a sh**.
