This isn't a discussion. I just wanted to tell it. Yesterday I was in our local Sainsburys looking for a lightweight coffee mug as my arthritis is such that I find it difficult to hold a regular mug in either hand, and feeling really sorry for "poor me" with my pains.
As I walked back to the car lamenting that I hadn't found one I noticed a lady around fifty years old pushing a loaded trolley back to her car. She was wearing shorts and both legs were amputated at the knee and she was walking on artificial limbs. Well I had to sit in the car for a few minutes before I could drive. And I counted my blessings. Pain holding a coffee mug didn't seem such a huge problem.
