People with Disabilities prefer you to describe the person, not the disability.
It is polite to refer to an individual's disability only if it is relevant;
avoid images that, unwittingly or consciously, evoke pity or guilt. "Wheelchair-bound"
is one such popular yet misleading term, since a wheelchair is generally seen as liberating
or enabling by its user or rider.
