"It's an objective fact that I am a double amputee, but it's very subjective opinion as to whether that makes me disabled."

There’s an important difference and distinction between the objective medical fact of my being an amputee and the subjective societal opinion of whether or not I’m disabled. Truthfully, the only real and consistent disability I’ve had to confront is the world ever thinking that I could be described by those definitions.
