It has been said that a disabled person has affected mental abilities, and don't make friends that easily, however, this issue can be debated, since a disabled person has many beautiful and fun qualities which they possess, and which many people seem to lack.
A few months ago, I saw a person who was mentally and physically disabled, many people were excluding her, calling her different, disallowing her to join in. As a good Samaritan, I decided to talk to her, give her a helping hand.
Firstly, I asked for her name, given that is what comes naturally to me, and she replied so sweetly ans innocently, I didn't even realize she was disabled. She had a great impact on my life, and I couldn't believe these people were excluding her for a minor fact.
She was sweet, charming, and most of all had a sense of humor. Little did I know, she had a debilitating disorder, which will slowly cause her to die. I was saddened at this prospect.
She was soon admitted to hospital, and I was at her bedside every day. I bought her flowers and chocolates, anything to show her I cared. As she was deteriorating, she had the energy to say the words I wanted to hear most, "Thank you for being my friend", and with her last ounce of strength, she was gone. I was almost inconsolable.
She was one child, who had a mild disability, who was excluded, had no friends, but turned out to be one of the best friends anyone could ever wish for. I owe many things to her: I owe her my loyalty, I owe her my companionship, but most of all, I owe her my life. People with disabilities are unforgettable people who touch your life greatly.
