I think you're focusing on semantics. Disabled means different things depending on which law you are looking at. According to the ADA, I'm disabled. According to SSDI, I'm disabled. But I can still work part-time. I said she was disabled because she can't work full-time and I knew she was getting some benefits, and I recall even previously she said she was disabled.

But anyways, like I said, I think you're focusing on semantics.
