One thing that really bothers me is when a person will stand up right
next to my wheelchair and start a conversation with me. I always get
a stiff neck while trying to look up at their face. I'm always
relieved when people squat down to my level to have a conversation.

Given the discussion around handicapped parking spaces, I thought
you might be interested in a survey we're running now at the
Christopher & Dana Reeve Foundation on the most annoying things
people do to people in wheelchairs.
It started with a discussion in our online community this winter
about snow being shoveled into handicapped parking spaces. Then
others chimed in with their pet peeves. You can add your vote at

If you'd like to send this to others in wheelchairs to have them put
in their $0.02, you can do that at
