I am proud of being disabled.
Alcott Dylan commented
“I used to get bullied as a kid. But if you ask me right now if I could have an operation or stem-cell research, there’s not enough money you could ever pay me because my disability has given me part of my opportunity in life. I’m proud to be disabled.”
