Hey.
Ive had arthritis for about 2 years now and have had foot orthotics which are only innersoles.
In the last couple of weeks, I got a ankle foot orthotic and for work I wear city shorts.
Now my boss, can see my ankle foot orthotic, everyone is been so nice and is understanding if I am unable to do something.
It drives me mad though now, that they can see my disability, they are been very nice.
I think it is very wrong.
Im not after people treating me like I cant do anything, I just want people to understand if I do need help, not to moan about it.
Does anyone else find this??
