Please feel free to ignore my question. You mentioned your parents were advised to abort you. I’m curious about whether you would have rather never lived? Do you ever blame your parents?

I know it’s a difficult topic, but from your perspective, what would you advise parents who before or during pregnancy get to know that their child might have (severe) disabilities?

Thank you for taking the time to write this answer and sharing your thoughts. I very much appreciate it! One thing I take from your story is that you still have a very valuable life, despite your conditions.

edit: and perhaps also that we shouldn’t be so focused on ourselves rather on others and be kind towards them.
