I stumbled across this when I was looking for a FMA fanfic with Ed in a wheelchair - something quite difficult to find. Follow some random links that looked interesting and ta-da! (Quite the way to find this, huh?)
Anyway, I have to say that this was fascinating. Speaking as someone who has always been able-bodied, I've never thought much about disabilities until recently. I'm a fanfic writer too, and I've been toying with the idea of disabled characters in my mind for awhile. The trouble is, I had absolutely no info to go on. But after this, I think I'll be a bit more equipped.
