Here's an article about a woman in a wheelchair who had some random man tell her having a disabled toilet is a "perk." Seems like a better perk would be being able bodied. It just reminded me of all the times since having to quit work since getting cancer and having a stroke that people have said things to me like "At least you don't have to work for your money," or "It must be nice getting free money."

Yeah it's lovely being in constant pain, being ill all the time, having all my hopes and dreams go down the drain, becoming totally isolated as people just drift away once you become ill, living off a pittance when in receipt of benefits and having to beg for every little thing when that pittance gets cut off, and getting reassessed for that pittance constantly. Not being able to do the things you want, just waiting to die. But hey, at least I get the disabled people's "perks" like disabled toilets.
