One good thing about living in a small rural town is that it's really, really supportive to people with disabilities. Someone with Down's isn't "a guy with Down's", he's "Scott who works at the butcher's". I always wondered, before moving here, how disabled people coped in village society of previous centuries, and now I have a pretty good idea - they coped very well indeed!
