It is wild how quickly people judge a situation without knowing anything about what someone has been through. This story shows how one woman, who had already survived something life changing, had to deal with a stranger deciding he knew her whole life just by looking at her.

Stuff like this matters because it happens to a lot of people with hidden or not so obvious disabilities. People think youth means you are completely healthy, or that if they cannot see an injury, it must not be real. This woman was tired of being treated that way, so she handled it in the most direct way possible.

Once you hear what she did to shut the man down, it is hard not to feel both proud of her and frustrated for her at the same time. It is worth reading to the end.
