Are there many Fluther members who are on some sort of disability?

I am not, yet, but should be. I have chronic pain, kidney disease, and a host of other auto-immune problems. My doctor said I qualified for the ‘disabled’ label years ago, but having been a stay-at-home mom for many years, Social Security said I didn’t have enough work credits to qualify. I foolishly let it go.

I am color blind.

It kinda sucks, but then all the super powers we color blind people have kind of even things out.

@bob_ As long as you can tell the difference between ketchup, mustard, mayonnaise and wasabi you should be o.k., it’s the sandwiches that matter.

@lillycoyote Exactly.

I am to @bob_ as Robin is to Batman. Colour blind, that is.

I also don’t always make sense. But my super powers make up for that, too.

I receive disability benefits from Social Security for ALS.. I receive additional benefits from a long term disability insurance policy. I, am colorblind as well, but since I’m already receiving the maximum benefit, I think I’ll just keep that one to myself, for now.
