Please don’t cuss some of us out for using our cripple tags. I use my permit when needed and even though I might look just fine getting out of my Jeep and grabbing my bins at the market, I’m already hurting and by the time I’m done my shopping and struggling back to the parking lot with my loot, I’m wishing yet again that I brought my cane (and wondering how the heck I’m doing to tote my groceries up and down the stairs when I get home) and knowing that I’ll be good for nothing the rest of the day and the next. Not all of us have visible handicaps. I’m tired of getting the stink eye and feeling like I have to prove I have a “right” to be crippled because I’m young and seemingly “fine”.

I remember nothing of what she sang except the chorus of one song: “so unless you’re crippled (and I hope you’re not) please don’t park in that handicap spot.”
