Writings about Ataxia, being DeafBlind, family life. The best life can offer!


Research

I am going to run a couple of experiments over the next while.

What reaction would I get if a person with a disability were to go to stores, or prestigious, affluent, environments.

In one situation; the disabled person would be rakishly dressed and groomed, looking spiffy. And then, return to that place looking like something the cat dragged in from the sewer…

What kind of response would that illicit? What emotional or physical responses would happen?

Sounds facinating? Maybe this is my Masters thesis!

If reaserach has been done on this topic; please let me know!

Thank you kindly!
