I wondered if you too would have felt the stigma - and you are 100% correct, it truly does spill over to all sorts of physical traits (weight/height/disabilities...etc)...Ugh - hate you had such a recent anecdote to share, but as you wisely noted, we share to raise awareness...sadly, often the ones aware are the readers and writers! LOL BUT - we never know--- again, it does boil down to our day-to-day lives: the actions and words we speak--that make the greatest impact for change.

I still thank you so much for this sincere comment - sending you the biggest hug! (...glad your eyes are doing so much better!!! 🤗)
