Disabled or not?
There are so many different ways disability can be defined.
This is a story I found touching.
Update, the links I had used previously aren't working. For now, these seem to be accessible:

Article can be viewed on Google books - I don't find the visual experience of reading there to be great, but it's what I can find. https://books.google.ca/books?
New Article
I also came across this article which has some of the same concepts
https://roommagazine.com/on-not-being-disabled-enough-4/
Old links, 1st no longer works.
https://www.folio.ca/the-decomposition-of-a-recovering-paralympian/
Incredibly hard-hitting. Perhaps more so because last week I was working with someone who has MD (they had a key role and I had a minor role in a project team). Thank you for the link!

Note to self: return here to read
Note to @AffyAvo ... the "new" link here now doesn't work, but the one that looks like it goes to a book seems to work ok. The article titled "the (de)composition of a recovering..." link came up for me today.
Again, to self, to come back for links and read this. Thanks Affy!!! <3 Platy
