Yeah being disabled sucks. Millions of people live like this.
It's not until it happens to someone you know that you really think about it.
But people learn to live with it.
Again you learn to live with that.
You should do some reading about being disabled because you views are a little ignorant tbh.
No one on this planet is able to live without assistance, and needing others to exist doesn't somehow reduce the value of ones life. You really have a lot of ableism to unlearn.
