Ten things never to say to a disabled person:
1. It's OK, I know how to deal with you, I've worked with the disabled.
2. Is your partner disabled too?
3. So, what's up with you?
4. If I became disabled I think I'd kill myself.
5. I saw this great thing on Tomorrow's World that could help you ...
6. There's a disabled woman lives down my street, I see her going past sometimes.
7. Wait there ...
8. It must be nice to get out and about.
9. I think you're really brave.
10. I really admire you.

Those sayings sound far too familiar!!! Don't people know NOT to say 'em!
