I love how accommodating Judaism is, in ways that too often the rest of society isn’t
I hope this shows people with disabilities who may doubt themselves because of the stigmas they face in society, that they are capable of anything they put their minds to and that it influences the way non-disabled people view disability.

[S]ome of the professors held events in their homes and I was never able to go. I felt as though I was always throwing a wrench into their erudite plans. I was not mistreated, but they were simply unprepared for a physically disabled student. It was a complete lack of recognition that dealing with disabilities involves complex and nuanced solutions.
