I know by having me say this is going to surprise lots of you because I
might seem to be on the ball with accepting my disability and helping others
accept theirs too.  But however since attending things like Partners in
Policy Making and having to learn People First Language, I'm spending most
of my time debating on what's acceptable and what's not.  I myself see
nothing wrong with drawing a stick person in a wheelchair but I know others
find that totally offensive.

  Have the artist make them like dreamlike figures.  I would be thinking of
an
  AB person and a couple of disabled persons shaking hands.
