I haven't read most posts here because many were confusing to me. Maybe others understand better, but I don't.

One reply said to read at "transabled.com" and I read the first page. It says

"So you'll ask: "That 'thing', transabled, just exactly what is it?". It is hard to define in just a few words, the best way to learn is by going through the site, but in a nutshell, someone who is transabled "wants" to be disabled."

Honest, I don't understand. Can someone please explain more why you want to be disabled? Or need - as the first page said? I don't mean to be arguing, offensive, or negative, but I am confused. What is the need? Attention? Low expectation? Help? Pity? Being different than others? Something about wheelchairs? Again - sincere questions and without meaning to be unfriendly.

I have never read about being needing to pretend (is "pretend" right? other word?) to be with MS etc and use wheelchairs or other assistance. Sorry that I didn't understand earlier post and thank you to any explanation.
