Its hard not to say this is amazing. One talent a writer must have is to be able to put themselves in the situations of other people, and be able to accurately describe how they feel. Here you didn't just examine the life of this person, but you experienced, albeit just in your mind, the life of this person. But I also think part of being able to experience this might be to examine. You don't sound ignorant, to me. But if I were stuck in a wheel chair and couldn't speak and just looked retarded... would I feel the same way? Maybe not. The problem is. You could never truly be able to communicate with someone in this position. Could you? Its a tough position. We want to have characters who we can't be... but then, can we ever truly represent them because we can never live as they live? Its a difficult topic for a writer. Any, I do like this. its rather harsh however. Its missing some sort of continuity. I feel it could flow a little better, but I can't give and sort of suggestion on how to make that happen. Anyway. nice work.
