People like that just leave me speechless. Well not speechless but I would be barred from the forum if I put what I really thought about them. Good for your wife. X

What a super wife you have for defending you like that and how true she was.It's just ignorant idiots like that who make you feel worse.

It's surprising how many folk equate disability=wheelchair; its just ignorance. I ignore them.

It's none of their business anyway!

Hi

Well done your wife, I know the feeling I get people give me a funny look when I've used my blue badge, but without it I couldn't get out of the house.

Not all illnesses are visible.

Take care

sorry you had this said to you. some people are just plain ignorant.

i get alot of banter at work, well THEY call it banter about me being well enough to work when its summer " o didn't think you would be in because the sun is out" , " you must stop using factor 50 as you need a tan" etc...........they simply don't understand what we live with everyday.

hugs xx
