Burdening the public with oneโ€™s private ailments, if presented without sufficient decorum, is a disadvantageous way to become the talk of the salon

#DisabilityPrideMonth - Disabilities are part of the diversity of human experience, not a problem to be solved. Despite progress, ablest biases and barriers remain pervasive and prevent many people with disabilities from achieving their full potential. Inclusion benefits us all.
