There are plenty of people in the world who can take a few steps but use a wheelchair so they can live a more fulfilling life, since they can’t walk far.

Saying “it’s a miracle” to this is quite shitty behaviour

100%, and it makes life difficult for albilatory wheelchair users when people assume they're faking a disability when they exit the chair

My wife and kids lost relationships over this mentality, her shitty father went around telling everyone at the family reunion that she was crazy and all her physical disabilities were made up. She has Eiler-Dahnlos hypermobility and all kinds of auto immune issues(something affecting her nerves) and my kids inherited some of her inheritable disorders. Most people disregard their disabilities because they are capable on some days or for short times, they don’t see that 2 days later they’re paying for that effort by being bedridden in pain for the next 2 days.

This goes for anyone with a disability placard hanging from their car, parking in those spots, walking with a service dog, etc - just mind your own business, you aren’t a trained doctor, you can’t see internal issues, and people’s private lives and health information isn’t your business, so mind your own and leave other people alone.
