People can be so thoughtless.

'What makes you special?'

               'So you must have had a small stroke then.'

                                                 'You don’t know how lucky you are.'

These are some of the statements that have come from people’s mouths; “Wow!” people are so thoughtless in regards to how these simple sentences can be taken in a different way than how they’re meant.

I don’t know if I’m necessarily special, the strokes I had caused me to arrest,  paralysed my right side, left me unable to walk, write, eat or drink as well as an inability to talk correctly. So I don’t actually consider that as minor. Lucky! Probably not, but does anyone really appreciate what they have. I believe that I have a better idea than most as life as I did know what it was like to have these things taken away from me.
